235. Myth Busting: Stop “Attention Seeking” Seeking Behavior In Sensitive Kids
Parent Your Highly Sensitive Child Like A Ninja
10/18/24 • 44 min
Imagine your child struggling to walk, falling down constantly at home, but miraculously having perfect coordination in public.
You wouldn't assume they were just stumbling for attention, right?
You'd know they genuinely needed help building that physical skill.
Well, the same is true for emotional skills like regulation and distress tolerance.
Meltdown behaviors at home (hitting, kicking, screaming, refusal, shutting down) are a sign of lagging abilities, not a manipulative bid for attention.

12/06/24 • 60 min
As a parent of a highly sensitive child, it's easy to feel helpless in the face of daily meltdowns and challenging behaviors.
You may wonder, "Is this just who my child is? Am I stuck dealing with this chaos forever?"
I want to offer you a resounding NO. You are not powerless. In fact, you have far more influence over your child's behavior than you may realize.
This week on the podcast, I'm diving deep into the research on family dynamics and the incredible capacity parents have to shape their child's emotional development.

239. Teaching sensitive kids to avoid people pleasing
Parent Your Highly Sensitive Child Like A Ninja
11/15/24 • 56 min
Recently, I had a frustrating experience that really drove home for me the importance of integrity and human connection in both business and parenting.
I had purchased a text watch for my highly sensitive child from a well-known company.
When I reached out with a question via email, I quickly realized I was communicating with a human who was using AI to simplify their responses.
The AI responses were contradictory and even chastising in tone as I tried to get a straight answer.
I felt belittled and unheard, all while trying to advocate for my child's needs.
It took me back to a decision I made years ago, when a former mentor suggested I cut labor costs by replacing my master's level team with cheaper, less qualified staff.
Listen to today's episode to hear how this experience applies to teaching your HSC to not be people pleasers.

147. When to Intervene at School for Your HSC - Even High Performing Students
Parent Your Highly Sensitive Child Like A Ninja
01/31/23 • 12 min
Should you intervene when your highly sensitive child is actually performing...well?
I bet you’ve asked yourself this question too many times, and the answer can be a bit tricky.
As a parent of a highly sensitive child, even if your child is high-performing, you may notice that your student can fall under the radar due to their performance.
Or possibly even struggle to cope with the emotional demands of their school environment.
It's important to remember that just because your child excels academically, it may still be crucial to intervene at school in order to provide the support your child needs to thrive.
Here are 3 key indicators that it's time for you to take action and support your child in the school setting even if they are appearing to “adjust” well:
✔️Meltdowns or shutting down at home: If your child is melting or shutting down at home because of what's happening or not happening at school, it's time to get involved and engage with the school to shift the systems being used to slow down your child's emotions.
✔️Performance anxiety: If your child is constantly working towards perfection, can't tolerate a single mistake, and is significantly struggling with homework at home, it's time to help them feel safe enough to make mistakes and have imperfect grades.
✔️Refusing: If your child is refusing to go to school, it's a clear indication that it's time to intervene.
You have the power to advocate for your child and create transformation in their school experience.
At Megghan Thompson Coaching, we help parents of highly sensitive children break out of the meltdown cycle in as little as 8 weeks and we're hosting an online event on Friday, February 3rd at 4pm EST.

Parent Your Highly Sensitive Child Like A Ninja

221. My 8 Month Parenting Regret
Parent Your Highly Sensitive Child Like A Ninja
07/05/24 • 41 min
You use intuition all the time without realizing it.
Like when deciding if that plate of food looks appetizing.
Or knowing the coffee you're about to drink will be very hot.
But I see so many parents struggle to trust their intuition with their kids... mainly because they let fear override it.
Your gut tells you something is a good or bad decision.
Then the doubts start creeping in from others' opinions... or the need to be liked... or the need to create convenience... or low self esteem..
