In today’s episode, we unpack what to do when aseemingly simple homework moment turns into intense frustration, defiance, and withdrawal. We zoom in on a small interaction between grandma and grandson, homework time where the assignment involved doing five problems and use complete sentences, but underneath it is a much bigger question many caregivers are carrying: How do I support a child who melts down when things feel hard or overwhelming?

We talk about why kids react this way, what’s really happening in their nervous system, and how to lead them through without power struggles or shame.
