Reasoning With Your Toddler is Pointless: Unpopular Parenting Opinions For 16-35 Months

BratBusters Parenting Podcast

#129 In this episode, Lisa discusses her opinions around parenting toddlers. She covers her approach to toddler tantrums, actions over discussions, what age she considers toddlers to be, why she believes parents discuss bad behaviour with their toddlers, what consistent corrective actions are, parents feeling like their toddlers are in control, childproofing the home, and toddlers running away in public. 

Lastly, Lisa addresses six listener questions, covering a 2-year-old copying behavior from a 3-year-old, a toddler running to mom for comfort during a tantrum, a 22-month-old who has started hitting during diaper changes and teeth brushing, whether it is possible to play too much with your kids, a 20-month-old hitting since starting kindergarten, and advice on the right age to encourage toddlers to dress independently.
