Spot the clue: Yelling & Screaming
| The clue you see | What it means | Do tonight |
|---|---|---|
| Screams "no" at simple requests | The request felt too big or too sudden. | Shrink the ask. One step at a time. |
| Yells back when you yell | Your volume became the model. | Drop your voice low. Low voice, calm kid. |
| Screams when it's time to stop playing | The ending came with no warning. | Give a 5-minute and a 2-minute warning. |
| Yells at a sibling over small things | Needs attention or feels it's unfair. | Name the feeling first: "That felt unfair." |
| Screams then cries | The feeling was too big for words. | Stay close. Words come after calm. |
