“Because kids who feel more connected to us and more supported by us will do better. They’ll be more successful, happier, etc.”

“We just need to remember that when we yell, our kids don’t actually learn. Because they’re stressed and we don’t learn when we’re stressed,” McCoy said.

According to McCoy, parents are more likely to yell when they’re already dealing with feelings of helplessness and anxiety, regardless of whether those feelings are related to their child.
