Why your child falls apart after working for too long.

Описание: Parents, homeschool moms, and families, have you noticed that “just one more thing” can push your child over the edge—and suddenly you’re dealing with a meltdown or total refusal?

If your child can start work… but the longer they work, the harder it gets…
If you see crying, yelling, shutting down, or “I’m not doing this” the moment their brain hits a wall…
If it looks like bad behavior, drama, or laziness (but it doesn’t feel that simple)…

This video is for you.

In this conversation, we unpack what’s really happening when kids work for too long, why meltdowns often show up right before refusal, and why the school day can feel like constant pressure for some children—especially when they’re expected to finish on a schedule instead of at their pace.

We’ll talk about:

Why your child’s emotions “explode” after sustained effort

What mental fatigue looks like (before adults recognize it)

Why kids can appear fine at first… then crash hard

Why “calm down” and “just keep going” usually backfire

What to observe at home so you can explain it clearly to teachers and the IEP team

If you’ve been wondering, “Why can’t my child just push through like everyone else?” — this will shift how you see it.
