情绪调节--第 3 部分:替代负面情绪的策略
In this session, marriage and family therapist, Brett Williams, explores key strategies for managing children’s emotions. Emphasizing rewards over punishment encourages positive behavior and reduces resentment. Using neutral, nonjudgmental language supports healthy self-esteem and better self-assessment in children. Incorporating regular quiet time helps children decompress and reflect, aiding in emotional regulation.
By implementing these approaches—rewarding positive actions, maintaining supportive communication, and scheduling quiet moments—parents can foster a more constructive and balanced environment. These methods not only enhance emotional management but also build a stronger, more positive connection with your child.
