Modern Parenting isn't a cake walk. Whether it’s a toddler throwing a tantrum in the candy aisle or a teenager’s emotional outburst after a heated disagreement, there are moments when every parent feels the urge to react strongly.

The urge to escalate comes from a natural place — frustration, fear, or a desire for control. But escalation — yelling or reacting emotionally — rarely leads to a constructive outcome. In fact, it often makes things worse. Yelling doesn't help in parenting, at least not in the long term. While it might grab a child's attention in the moment, it often leads to – fear instead of understanding, emotional distance, poor behavior, or even escalation.

So, when such tough parenting moment arise, how to not lose our calm? In today’s episode, we will talk about how to handle hard moments with grace and strength.
