Functional Parenting Coach
Child behavior & tantrum help
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Ask the Guide is here. Describe the behavior, get a calm next step grounded in the framework — not generic advice. Every parent's first question is free.
Parenting gets hardest in the moments when you have no time to think.
Functional Parenting helps you understand what your child’s behavior may be communicating, decide what to do next, and respond with more calm and consistency.
Instead of asking only, “How do I stop this behavior?” the Functional Parenting framework helps you ask, “What is this behavior trying to tell me?”
GET HELP IN THE MOMENT
Describe what happened and get practical guidance grounded in the Functional Parenting framework. The assistant can use your tracker logs and parenting plans to make the response more relevant to your family.
You can also use quick tools for the moments when you need help fast:
• What Should I Do? — answer a few questions and get clear next steps
• Script Library — find practical words to use in tough situations
• Behavior Pattern Check — get a quick read on what may be driving the behavior
• Reset Right Now — take 60 seconds to regulate yourself before responding
UNDERSTAND THE PATTERN
Use the ABC Behavior Tracker to log what happened before, during, and after a behavior. Over time, you can see patterns and better understand the likely function behind tantrums, refusal, defiance, transitions, bedtime struggles, mealtimes, and big feelings.
BUILD A PLAN YOU CAN FOLLOW
Turn insight into a simple parenting plan with:
• A clear goal
• The likely function of the behavior
• Structure and prevention strategies
• A response plan for hard moments
• A one-page plan you can share with a spouse or partner
LEARN THE 5-PHASE FRAMEWORK
Work through the complete Functional Parenting approach:
Reset yourself
Define the goal
Decode the function
Build structure
Respond with purpose
BUILD SKILLS EVERY DAY
Daily tips, challenges, and reflections help you practice the framework in small, manageable steps and build habits that last.
WHO IT’S FOR
Functional Parenting is for parents and caregivers who feel stuck in cycles of repeating, threatening, yelling, giving in, or feeling guilty afterward—and want a calmer, more intentional way to handle difficult behavior.
The goal is not a perfectly compliant child or a perfect parent. It is a more connected, capable family with a repeatable way to handle hard moments.

Functional Parenting provides general educational guidance and is not medical advice. For repeated aggression, self-injury, elopement, significant developmental concerns, or other safety risks, seek individualized professional support.
