As a clinical psychologist, published author, and mother to two cheeky young children, I get it. I’ve spent YEARS researching and filtering through the noise online, so you don’t have to.
On one end, we want to curb the misbehavior and increase cooperation with our toddler or preschooler but we also want to do so in a way that’s respectful and cuts back on the tears and tantrums.
Really, this comes down to TWO big things:
Managing our expectations of our child and making sure our expectations are aligned with their developmental level
Coming from the understanding that all feelings are valid (both our child’s and our own). There’s really no such thing as “bad” feelings. They just are what they are.
But this is much harder said than done, so I want to walk you through this process.
In this week’s video, I’m going to share practical tips to help you avoid tantrums after setting limits.
Specifically, you’ll learn:
✔What are age-appropriate expectations for toddlers and preschoolers
✔5 critical elements of respectful discipline and boundaries (and why they’re so important)
✔Step by step what to do when you need to discipline/set a limit and exactly how to get through the difficult moments
