Today's topic : Why emotionally intense kids feel disconnected

I discuss into the reasons why emotionally intense kids often feel disconnected from their parents and other adults. The impact of constant correction on their behavior, how it affects their self-confidence, and the feeling of being misunderstood. And also the struggles parents encounter in feeling judged, disappointing themselves, and seeking understanding.
