Description
An illustrated guide for parents and carers that explores why children can often seem emotionally exhausted, irritable, withdrawn, or overwhelmed after a day at school. While the school day may be over, many children return home carrying the effects of social demands, sensory input, learning pressures, transitions, and the effort of getting through the day. This compassionate resource helps adults understand what may be happening beneath the surface and why after-school meltdowns, clinginess, conflict, or shutdowns are often signs of a child needing recovery rather than correction.
