Join Terri and Stacy as they discuss the neuroscience behind communicating with neutrality and trusting kids with emotional information. How do we say "no" kindly, firmly and understanding that there is great benefit to doing so? Teach your kids safety, boundaries, security and problem solving by being kind and firm and allowing them to create experiences around emotions that are thoughtfully responsive - instead of reactive.
