Map Your Child's Predictable Triggers
Use the ALSUP tool to identify your child's specific unsolved problems by writing them precisely, starting with 'Difficulty...' followed by a verb (e.g., 'Difficulty sharing toys with brother in playroom'). Focus only on the unmet expectation, not the behavior. This exercise reveals that most explosions happen around the same 5-10 recurring issues, making them preventable through proactive problem-solving rather than reactive punishment.
