When Things Escalate
A free mini-course for parents living with explosive behaviour
If your child’s reactions feel bigger than the situation...
If small moments turn into major conflicts…
If you’re exhausted from trying to stay calm, firm, or “do the right thing”
This mini-course is for you.
No judgement. No blame. Just understanding and proven strategies.
Most parents don’t come looking for support
because they’re “bad at parenting”
They come because:
conflict keeps escalating
their child’s reactions feel unpredictable
nothing they try seems to stick
and they’re carrying the weight of it alone
If that’s you, you’re not failing.
You’re parenting in a modern age that's never existed before. For these children, you need more than rewards and consequences.
This free mini-course is designed to help you make sense of what’s really happening during moments of conflict, without overwhelming you.

Proven strategies that work
This mini-course covers 3 key topics in short, accessible videos
Understanding your child’s behaviour
Children have two key factors that influence their behvaviour.
You'll learn:
why your child can be defiant, angry and aggressive, no matter how loving you are
the foundation for self-regulation
Understanding this concept is a lightbulb for many parents.
Understanding escalation
Escalation is rarely about a single moment, and it's often about the long-term interactions.
This section helps you understand:
why escalations happen
what maintains them
how small changes in your responses can shift the pattern
All without arguing, giving in, or losing your authority.
De-escalation
De-escalation is not about being passive or permissive.
It’s about:
knowing when to engage and when to pause
reducing fuel in the moment
building calm authority over time
Small shifts here can make a big difference.
You don’t need to be perfect.
You don’t need to be endlessly calm or endlessly firm.
You don’t need to have all the answers.
You just need a clearer map of the storm you’re already in.
