Why is my tween angry at me? Advice from a psychologist...
Updated | By Breakfast with Martin Bester
"How your kids practice their voice at home is how they're going to do things when they're out there in the world."
"Our tweens want a little bit more control, making their voice heard a little more, and it's important we stay present, pay attention, and let them feel heard," says psychologist Dr Jenny Rose.
But how do I manage these changes and all this drama without total disruption? The mood swings, social behaviour, impulse decisions, and dis-regulation.
Tweens are an interesting 'in-between' phase, and psychologist Dr Rose returns to our Baby Brunch Podcast, this time to help us better understand the dynamics of handling a smooth transition for our kids into their tween years and beyond.
