Does your child hold it together all day at school β then completely fall apart the moment they walk through the door? π
You're not imagining it. This is called the "after-school restraint collapse," and it's incredibly common in children with autism.
Here's the why π
Your child has been working SO hard all day β managing sensory input, social demands, and expectations. By the time they get home, their emotional tank is empty. Home is safe. And that's when everything comes out.
At Kangaroo Journeys, we use Emotional Regulation and Behavioral Momentum strategies β both at our clinic AND with your family at home β to help your child build the capacity to manage big feelings before they overflow.
It's not bad behavior. It's communication. And we can help. π
Serving families across Columbus and Central Ohio.
π Let's book a Discovery Call to see what support could look like for your family.
