When Your Child Explodes: A Calmer Path to Parenting Inflexible and Frustrated Kids

By DOMINIC CHANDLER

Your child isn't trying to make your life harder. They're trying to tell you they're having a hard time.

If your home feels like a minefield-one wrong move, one unexpected change, one "no" away from an emotional explosion-this book is for you.

When Your Child Explodes explores the real-life struggles of parenting kids who are inflexible, easily frustrated, and often misunderstood. Whether your child has frequent meltdowns, shuts down completely, or reacts with big emotions that seem impossible to manage, you're not alone-and neither of you are broken.

Written by certified therapist Dominic Chandler, this book offers a practical, compassionate guide for understanding the emotional world of intense children. You'll learn what's happening beneath the surface, why traditional discipline doesn't work for these kids, and how to build connection and trust even in the heat of the moment.

Through relatable stories, therapist-approved strategies, and a calming, non-judgmental tone, you'll discover:

How to recognize the hidden triggers behind explosive behaviorTechniques to stay calm when your child is notWhy inflexible kids need structure-but not controlTools to shift from power struggles to peaceful cooperationWays to heal your own parenting guilt and burnout

This book is your gentle reminder that progress-not perfection-is what matters most. And that you can show up for your child without losing yourself in the process.

You don't have to keep walking on eggshells.
There's a calmer path forward-and it starts right here.
