All behavior makes sense 'It most certainly does not!, is probably your first reaction. Parenting and neuroscience expert Robyn Gobbel is here to reveal how all behavior, no matter how baffling, can be explained and remedied. You just need to look past the behavior and understand what's going on inside. Robyn decodes the latest brain science into easy-to-understand principles and metaphors to help you become an expert in your child's behavior. She reveals simple ways to help you regulate and connect with your child, with brain-, body- and sensory-based strategies to overcome day-to-day challenges. She also provides you with the knowledge to understand and regulate your own brain so that you don't flip your lid when your child flips theirs. Let this be your lifeline for parenting or caring for any child with baffling behaviors and hidden challenges, including kids who have experienced adversity, or with additional needs.

This book is a gift for weary parents!! Reading it feels like sharing a cup of coffee with a dear friend who is there to hold your hand on this wild ride of raising kids with big, baffling behaviors. Clear explanations, helpful analogies, and "aha" moments galore await you in these pages, but it doesn't stop there. With deep compassion and well-timed humor, the author shares the science behind behavior and illuminates the path to relational healing. I will be sharing this book far and wide. Highly recommended!

Robyn Gobbel has created an important resource for parents that explains the 'why' behind baffling behaviors and provides practical and science-based solutions to help improve them.
Greg Santucci, Occupational Therapist, Executive Director Power Play Pediatric Therapy
Written in a connected, conversational style, Raising Kids with Big Baffling Behaviors explains some very complex neurobiological science that is at the root of understanding kids' behaviors. It's like having Robyn in your living room, co-regulating with you as you parent.
