“Calm down!” “How dare you talk to me like that!” Hi, I'm Ali, and a few years ago that was me talking to my fizzy kids every.single.day. The problem was, I went to bed feeling like a bad Mum and my kids were becoming increasingly dysregulated. They had behavioural problems, but it felt like I did too. Join me on my quest to transform my parenting language and approach with my fizzy kids (autism, dyspraxia, sensory processing disorder, attachment disorder, anxiety and mental health issues).

Felicity Ashley knows a thing or two about resilience.

It Ain't What you Say, it's the Way that you Say it!

Season 1 · Episode 6

Wednesday, November 17, 2021 • Duration 43:46

Well folks, it's been a pleasure to start this podcasting journey with you! We finish off this first Season with an 11 step checklist to help think about not just what you say to your fizzy kids (your ALL NEW SPARKLY parenting language!) but also how to say it. Join Ali as she goes through a checklist that has helped her remember the importance of noticing her own feelings, the body language she uses with her kids and the power of silence and walking away. We are at the end of the first season of FizzyKids: The Podcast where we have been sharing our journey to re-learn our parenting language and skills in order to help become the parents our kids need us to be. Fizzy kids (those taking longer to learn to manage their big feelings or those with hidden disabilities) find it so much harder to express their feelings without displaying big behaviours; but how we talk to our kids has a huge impact on how a family and household can function. We are aiming to be back in early 2021 with a new Season where we chew the cud with parents, carers and professionals who work with fizzy kids - and some may even have been fizzy kids themselves...

How to Talk to Prevent Shaming Your Child

Season 1 · Episode 5

Wednesday, November 17, 2021 • Duration 32:34

Guilt is thinking you have done something bad; shame is thinking you are bad. In this epsiode we discuss the impact that shame can have on fizzy kids, and how we as parents and carers can unintentionally induce a sense of shame in our kids.

Shame is such a powerful emotion and what we say and how we say it to our kids can add shame into our families and households. Join Ali as she shares ideas and phrases that can help create a SHAME FREE ZONE in your homes.

We are nearing the end of the first season of FizzyKids: The Podcast where we have been sharing our journey to re-learn our parenting language and skills in order to help become the parents our kids need us to be. Fizzy kids (those taking longer to learn to manage their big feelings or those with hidden disabilities) find it so much harder to express their feelings without displaying big behaviours; but how we talk to our kids has a huge impact on how a family and household can function.

We have spent time in this first season thinking about our language for the Angry Child and Rude Child, and the final episode will cover a Checklist to help re-learn our parenting language.

How to Talk to the Anxious Child

Season 1 · Episode 4

Wednesday, November 17, 2021 • Duration 42:51

Anger masks fear; rudeness masks fear; over-confidence masks fear; hiding away masks fear.

Identifying anxiety in our kids is such a hard task because it can be masked by many other emotions and behaviours; but how we draw out and talk to the anxiety is key in helping our kids to learn to manage their big feelings (and resulting big behaviours) around anxiety. We may not be able to stop them feeling anxious, but we can help them find ways to talk about their worries and fears without making them feel ashamed or embarrassed about them.

We are half way through the first season of FizzyKids: The Podcast where we have been sharing our journey to re-learn our parenting language and skills in order to help become the parents our kids need us to be. Fizzy kids (those taking longer to learn to manage their big feelings or those with hidden disabilities) find it so much harder to express their feelings without displaying big behaviours; but how we talk to our kids has a huge impact on how a family and household can function.

We have spent time in this first season thinking about our language for the Angry Child and Rude Child, and further episodes will cover The Ashamed Child and a Checklist to help re-learn our parenting language.

How to Talk to the Rude Child

Season 1 · Episode 3

Wednesday, November 17, 2021 • Duration 33:54

There is nothing that makes my blood boil more than rudeness from my kids! How about you?

But as we are learning, there is nothing that some fizzy kids like more than an excuse to kick off! Join us for Episode 3 of Season 1 (Learning a new parenting language) where I talk about getting to grips with rudeness and learning a different language and approach to help manage my feelings when my fizzy kids are being rude. It turn, it's also helping them to learn a different way to respond to situations and that they don't always need to turn on their survival/caveman mode in order to get what they want.

Further episodes will focus on ideas for a new parenting language for the Anxious Child the Ashamed Child and more. We are loving your feedback - so please keep sharing what's working for you and any other constructive criticism.

How to Talk to the Angry Child

Season 1 · Episode 2

Wednesday, November 17, 2021 • Duration 39:01

What do you say to your child when they are angry? How do you react? How does it make YOU feel to see and hear their anger?

In this second episode of Season 1 (Learning a New Parenting Language), Ali explores what makes fizzy kids angry, how those big feelings can present as big behaviours and shares some ideas about how to talk to the anger (and the Angry Child) in a different way.

It's so easy to take our child's anger personally and to react to their Caveman 'fight mode' with our own 'fight mode' - the result is escalated situations and incidents rather than regulated ones. We don't necessarily want to teach our kids to not be angry, we just want them to learn to be angry in the right way.

Further episodes will focus on ideas for a new parenting language for the Anxious Child, Ashamed Child, Rude Child and more!

Being Teacher to fizzy kids

Season 2 · Episode 4

Thursday, July 15, 2021 • Duration 45:39

Meet Steph. Steph is an Autism Specialist Teacher and Advisor. Steph is on a mission to support autistic and neurodiverse learners to reach their potential. Over the years she has equipped loads of parents and teachers with tools and strategies needed to teach and empower kids. She believes that teaching should be totally inclusive and designs strategies and systems that benefit not just autistic children, but all children. And this is really important to us at fizzy kids – because not all of you have kids who have diagnosed learning or emotional difficulties. Some of our fizzy kids are just taking longer to reach emotional maturity or may be really sensitive and could benefit from different ways of teaching and learning. Make a cup of tea, sit back and enjoy being part of the FizzyKids tribe. Find more @thefizzykids (Instagram & Facebook) or on our website www.fizzykids.co.uk.

Being Amie - from fizzy kid to adulthood

Tuesday, March 9, 2021 • Duration 39:30

Meet Amie. Amie is an Ecologist with a passion for wildlife conservation having spent time across the world volunteering on projects after completing her degree. She also just happens to have secondary dystonia which she describes as cerebral palsey without the brain damage. But as you can probably tell, she hasn’t let that stand in her way. For the rest of the day after Amie’s interview I found myself reflecting on her honest words – she talks about her relationship with her family, her hopes for her future and shares some amazing messages for parents and carers of fizzy kids about what’s important to them growing up. And actually, it’s got very little to do with trying to fix all your child’s additional challenges in life before they reach 18 and much more to do with talking, growing together as a family and supporting the day-to-day ups and downs that any child would have. Grab a cup of tea, sit back and enjoy being part of the FizzyKids tribe. Find more @thefizzykids (Instagram & Facebook) or on our website www.fizzykids.co.uk.
