When I work with parents whose child spends a lot of time on the possum pathway, I warn them that sometimes possum kids become watchdog kids before the finally have a nice, strong owl brain.
Because watchdog behaviors are often more intense and scarier than possum behaviors, this can feel like your child is ‘getting worse.’
It’s actually a sign of healing, and here’s why!
In this episode, you’ll learn

  • Why kids who have a lot of possum behavior can sometimes become kids who have a lot of watchdog behavior
  • Why this phenomenon usually means there is progress and healing happening
  • Why sometimes kids move from possum behaviors to owl behaviors without having watchdog behaviors
