[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay so the meltdown is because he’s tired, which you know, but at age 9 he should be able to brainstorm with you ways to do it faster WITHOUT the meltdown. What if you bring a hearty smoothie for the drive home, instead of food to eat. What if you got a shower speaker and picked an amount of time that’s acceptable for both of you and found songs that fit that time, so he knows when the 3 songs are over, he has to get out. Teach him breathing techniques so when he’s unhappy about something he breathes first instead of melting down.[/quote] OP here and thank you for the helpful response! He does eat dinner before practice but its a small snack dinner and i dont blame him for needing more after practice. Its the long whiny drawn out way he handles it that is the concern. I love the shower speaker idea. Will give that a try! Also not opposed to melatonin with dinner to help with the wind down.[/quote]
