"How to Avoid Restraint Collapse"

$8.00

After holding it together in a highly structured environment with lots of social expectation, some kids (and adults) will experience a sudden and intense breakdown as their resources used to maintain restraint wear thin. This may look like:

  • Tantrum behaviors

  • Intense emotional sensitivity or reactivity

  • Skill regression

  • Low frustration tolerance

  • Extreme sensory seeking and/or aversions

Restraint collapse can really impact families, and often times will leave them seeking support from the School Team for help. Commonly, the School Team isn't experiencing the horrors at school that they are hearing about at home! This pamphlet provides strategies and suggestions for easing the transition home after a day of school.
