18 Effective De-Escalation Strategies for Diffusing Meltdowns

At Et Al we often need to explain that when a child has Sensory Integration difficulties their perceived tantrums are in actual fact meltdowns and that they are not trying to be “naughty” or wanting to “manipulate” you. In this blog Nicole Day the founder of Raising an Extraordinary Person shares some strategies on how to de-escalate these meltdowns. Feel free to contact us if you have any further questions on this topic or if anything is not clear.
