About Great Dad Talks
Great Dad Talks is a series of conversations with experts on all aspects of the family adventure. With the perspective that “dads don’t always think like moms,” our mission is to support dad voices and our slightly different approaches to parenting. We’ll try to find solutions to every day challenges like getting kids off the couch and making STEM classes available for both boys and girls. But we’ll also tackle bigger issues when they come. The one main theme will be to support dads in the most important role of their lives that of being a great dad.

Now, the challenge to that is is that when the child is in that state of stress, not only are they sending off a vibration from their amygdala, their fear receptor, that vibration hits the parent. As soon as that vibration hits the parent, so what happens is the child tantrums and our amygdalas see the tantrum as a threat. And this is kind of where we fall off a little bit. […]
