[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsmith123]Hangry adult, here. I think one important thing that you can do for your child is to help him make the connection between his mood and food. I was in my 20s before a boyfriend of mine made the connection for me, and it was eye opening. I know that sounds crazy that I wouldn't have figured it out before then, but I guess I just wasn't that self aware. If you teach him to identify when it's happening, and to address it, that'll go a long way.[/quote] This is very good advice. My DC is a very steady kid, until they get hangry. We talk about doing "body check ins" when they are feeling disregulated. They can recognize when they're feeling disregulated, and we're working on connecting the cause and effect.[/quote]
