Why Managing Your Own Stress Helps Your Child Thrive

This episode explores one of the most important parenting skills: managing your own stress before responding to your child’s meltdown. Our resident Child Psychologist Dr. Faye Pool from Kerr Psychology explains how stress affects both parent and child, and shares realistic regulation techniques for high-pressure moments — including public tantrums and parenting abroad.
