In this episode of the Wiggle Room Podcast, a participant brings a one-liner to question about her 13-year-old son who recently became very upset, yelling, and picking up things to throw. She said that his rant went on for two hours. Here she does her work on the situation by questioning the stressful thought, “He experiences too much pain for a kid his age.”   You can also listen to this podcast wherever you get your podcasts.
