Caregivers know that some children are more challenging than others to parent. When parenting a
particular child or children becomes chronically unrewarding, caregivers' brains change. Through this
change, blocked care occurs. Learn what blocked care is, how to parent these particularly challenging
children, and move from blocked care to enjoyable and effective parenting. By the end of this session,
participants will be able to describe what blocked care is, identify the impact of blocked care on caregivers and
children, practice effective parenting strategies that help children and stop blocked care.
