Get low. Get simple.

  1. Get down to their level.

  3. Offer one simple choice.
  4. Stay close. Let it pass.

One next move.
One clear intervention card. That’s it. That’s enough.

Parenting advice is for later. Panic Button is for the next 60 seconds.

From the founder

Built by a dad who needed this and couldn’t find it.

Panic Button came from the gap between knowing parenting advice and actually remembering it when your child is melting down at 7pm and you’re out of patience. It is built for the moment when your brain is overloaded and you need one simple move — not a Google search, not a forum, not a 12-step article. Just the next right thing.
