Here’s something worth remembering: every behavior is a form of communication. Behind every outburst, refusal, or meltdown is a feeling, a need, or a longing. This is true for children (and for us, too!!). When we remember that even most adults struggle to express their needs clearly, it becomes easier to have empathy for our kids. They’re still developing the tools to share what’s happening inside. So instead, they often use behavior to speak for them. And when we haven’t been taught how to listen beneath that behavior, it’s easy to get caught in reactivity or power struggles. At the Jai Institute, we help parents build the muscle of compassionate leadership , which is the ability to stay grounded, hold boundaries, and tune in to what’s really going on beneath the surface for the people in our care.
