15. The Trigger Stage Strategies to avoid the escalation stage:
Get in quick and be positive
Divert a child onto something else
Tell them what you want, not what you do not want
Avoid trigger situations ~ be smart
Give time for the child to comply

16. The Escalation Stage Strategies to avoid the crisis stage:
A child is preparing for “fight or flight” ~ help them make a good choice
Watch for signs e.g. tension, breathing, facial expression ~ remove them or others from the situation
Stay calm and do not provoke them

17. The Crisis Stage
Make things safe (remove dangerous objects and get others to leave)
Use restraint only if a child is a danger to themselves or others
Stay in control and do not make it worse (by imitation, ridicule etc.)
Get help ~ do not be proud, be smart

18. The Plateau/Recovery Stage
Strategies for working through the recovery phase:
Do not ask provocative questions
Allow time for recovery (theirs and yours)
Guide the child towards something you would like them to do
Consider “time out” tactic e.g. exit cards

19. The Post-Crisis/Depression Stage
Getting beyond the depression stage:
Do not load the child up with more guilt
If there was anything positive to praise then go for it! E.g. well done for avoiding hitting
Discus how to change the behaviour in the future, in a positive, caring way e.g. if you feel that angry again, use your exit card
