If you've tried everything and a behavior just won't stop…that's a sticky behavior. Let's dive deeeeeep into the neuroscience behind the behaviors that feel impossible to change. We'll touch on how the brain stores predictions and how the most well-meaning response can actually, unintentionally, keep those predictions locked in place and perpetuate that sticky behavior. This is Part 1 of a 3-part series that brings new aha moments to your child's most baffling behaviors.
In this episode, you will learn:
Why your child's brain holds onto certain behaviors so tightly, and why it has nothing to do with defiance or choice
What neural glue is and why the behaviors encoded under overwhelm and aloneness are the stickiest of all
Why the urge to make a behavior stop can actually confirm the very prediction the behavior is protecting
