Better or Worse is all about helping your child explore what helps them and what doesn’t help them when they feel distressed or upset.

Directions: Ask your child to think of a time they were upset – what helped them? Can they think of five things that help them when they feel upset and five things that don’t help – write them down and keep as a reminder.

This is a great communication tool for any parents, caregivers or professionals in a child’s life to better understand how to support and comfort a child in distress.
