Decoding Unwanted Behaviors

Season 2 - Episode 19

All children act out for a reason, even if you can’t understand it in the moment. In this episode, Lauren looks at the five needs areas that, when unmet, are the cause of those challenging behaviors. 

Lauren outlines each of the 5 needs, how children present when a need is not met, and makes suggestions on ways to meet that need.
