Contrary to what has been thought for decades, Self-Control is not the key to changing challenging behaviour. It is a crucial piece of the puzzle, but it is actually Self-Regulationthe ability to manage and recover from stress that lies at the heart of changing a childs developmental trajectory. Instead of trying to teach children better Self-Control, we should instead focus on identifying and reducing stress load. During heightened times of stress, the parts of the b...rain that allow us to successfully exercise Self-Control are diminished. Dr Stuart Shanker has been instrumental in this work, and I especially love his insights into the 5 domains of Self-Reg. Do you know what the 5 domains are?
