"All behavior makes sense"
'"It most certainly does not!", is probably your first reaction.
Parenting and neuroscience expert Robyn Gobbel is here to reveal how all behavior, no matter how baffling, can be explained and remedied. You just need to look past the behavior and understand what's going on inside.
Robyn decodes the latest brain science into easy-to-understand principles and metaphors to help you become an expert in your child's behavior. She reveals simple ways to help you regulate and connect with your child, with brain-, body- and sensory-based strategies to overcome day-to-day challenges. She also provides you with the knowledge to understand and regulate your own brain so that you don't flip your lid when your child flips theirs.
Let this be your lifeline for parenting or caring for any child with baffling behaviors and hidden challenges, including kids who have experienced adversity, or with additional needs.

Gobbel, a mental health professional and host of the podcast Parenting After Trauma, reveals science-backed strategies for parents of children who exhibit challenging behaviors. She starts by encouraging parents to do the best they can, especially if they lack support. She draws on neuroscience to explain that the human brain desperately seeks safety; and simple needs such as hunger, exhaustion, or the need to use the bathroom can all leave a child feeling unsafe, which may lead to behavioral problems. Gobbel says neurodivergence, trauma, and immune disorders all create extra vulnerability. Gobbel gives feasible suggestions to parents, and each chapter includes a case study. VERDICT Comprehensive and filled with hands-on tips. For parents striving to help their children.
