Demonstrate appropriate and desired behavior whenever you can. 2. Share your calm, don't let them share their chaos. 3. Realize that their emotions about this are valid, and it's completely okay to allow them to feel and process those feelings. 4. Try to manage their triggers whenever possible. 5. Choose your 'no's' carefully to ensure your child can count on 'no' meaning 'no'. 6. Think out loud to encourage working through decisions, making decisions, and modeling appropriate thought patterns. 7. Be empathetic- Try to understand the situation from their perspective rather than your own. 8. Positive reinforcement- When they do a good job handling things or a good job redirecting, acknowledge and encourage it.
