When our needs are not met so well …










      ▪ When needs aren’t met well, stress chemicals


            are released into the body.




      ▪ This results in a physical feeling. We may feel


            hot, get a prickly feeling inside or our heart

            may flutter.




      ▪ We need good skills to manage the stress of


            unmet needs. Unless a child has strong skills

            to tolerate that feeling, it can lead to a stress

            response (fight, flight, freeze are the ones


            people know best).
