Confirming Perceptions When I find myself in a "tell the truth" situation with my own kids, I often start with these words:____ happened. You (C were right to notice that." This is critical. Our children are deep sensors and perceivers of their environment. They simply haven't amassed enough life experience to differentiate what is dangerous from what is merely annoying from what is safe. In fact, research has found that children notice more details in their environment than adults. We often tell ourselves stories such as "My child is too young to have noticed that," or "There's no way he picked up on that," but... no. If you've noticed something in your environment, your child has too. Children are, generally, helpless-they are keen observers because noticing changes (i.e., potential threats) is what allows them to seek safety.

Figure Your Trigger One key insight from reading Charles Duhigg’s book, The Power of Habit, is this: if you don’t know what triggers the old behaviour, you’ll never change it because you’ll already be doing it before you know it. The more specific you can be when defining your trigger moment, the more useful a piece of data it is.
