Well, I wonder if your child has ever had an outburst that you just didn't anticipate.

I remember a time when

one of our boys, Danny, was talking and then just started to cry. It was really good. And I looked at him.

I said, it's okay. It's really okay. Those moments come, and how you handle them really makes a

difference. I'm John Fuller, along with Dr. Danny Werta. And Danny, have you had moments like that? Now, girls, maybe. Girls, but boys too can sometimes just break into two. That's funny, and the story that comes to mind just immediately is of my boy. Plenty of outbursts from my daughter, but my son it was at a we're at the grocery store

and that's the classic one one oh yes that's where the meltdown happens and relate to that usually

your child's tired you're in a hurry you're task focus we got to get these things done and my son

was tired he was hungry i knew that and i was thinking, we could just in and out. He's such a

great kid. Now, he saw something. He was like, oh, I want to see this. And we didn't have time

to look at it and much less buy it. And he had an outburst in that moment. And it quickly

ended our grocery store run.

So I retreated to the car. I said, what was I thinking? This was not a good. I didn't set him up for success on this. I think we're just going to have to go. I'll get that stuff later. And so we stepped out and he goes, why are we going, Dad? I said, yeah, it's just, it wasn't a good time. And your emotions are running all over the place. We'll do this another time.

Did you tell him what I've heard you say so often on this show uh that we need

your brain to have time to catch up with your emotions no we i said your brain's running around

all over the grocery store and i think it's going to meet us back at the car i love i love how you say

these things well uh all uh so let's go look for it in the car so we went back to the car. I love how you say these things. Well, uh, I'll, uh, so let's go look for it in the car. So we went back to the car. I said, you got to put your brain back together. We're going home. Got it. Well, uh, as you parent, we're going to help you learn how to manage those situations. We're going to have a clip now from Focus on the Family with Jim Daly. Jim talked with Melissa Hannigan about what she learned about parenting from her time volunteering

at a local prison.

You linked and you mentioned a moment ago about working with incarcerated women, and you

talk about that in the context of EQ.

So bring those two together for us.
