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.

Very relatable.

I really enjoyed how the author followed the story of the parent and her child. Very well written and I got a few helpful nuggets.

A great book for awareness and effective action

I found this book to be one of the most relatable and effective parenting books I have read in quite some time. Within days of starting conversations with my kids about their “watchdog brains,” I found them coming to me acknowledging when their watchdog brains had taken over. I so appreciate the self-awareness that this book fosters, both in me and in my kids.

The experiences and issues the child had and the explanation on how to regulate

I loved the book it was very informative. Provided great details on how to deal with behaviors and how to support a child

As a therapist I recommend this book all the time

This is a very readable book with a great explanation of the nervous system. I highly recommend.

What an easy and informative listen

It is easy to listen to Robyn, it’s as if we are just having a kind conversation with each other. She’s so easy to listen to and the knowledge that was taught to help me see my kid’s big behaviors (and mine too!) were so helpful. Thank you thank you!

Eye opening

I love how realistic this book is and gives real, raw experiences that parents can relate to.

Wonderful parenting book!

I appreciated the concept & learned a lot! The style of writing and narration was excellent. Highly recommend.

Authentic, helpful, and hopeful

If you are tired of reading (or listening) to parenting books that make you feel worse or hopeless or too hard to follow, but you are still looking for help, this is definitely the book for you. I’ve followed Robyn’s work for over 10 years. Throughout that time, I have been encouraged as a parent, a therapist, and a human in more ways than I can count. This book is a culmination of learning and experience that is packaged and delivered in a way that is easy to listen to, easy to understand, and as easy to implement as anything relating to parenting can be. And most importantly, you’ll end up with an understanding of what behavior really is and strategies that can make a real difference. Through it all, Robyn offers compassion and understanding. I highly recommend!

Absolutely Amazing

I can't say enough about how this book has helped my personal life as a mother and grandmother of kids with Big Baffling Behaviors and my career as a therapist with kids that have vulnerable nervous systems.

Most usable presentation of the information I've ever found.

Robyn has a real gift for taking complex theory about an extremely difficult, personal and nuanced subject (parenting our kids with big behaviors) and making it digestible, usable and most importantly- she makes the reader feel seen in the struggle.
