Can You Trust Your Child's Social Instincts? Or is She a Bully?

Respectful Parenting: Janet Lansbury Unruffled

A parent who describes her 3-year-old as “bright and spirited… a sweet girl” has noticed lately in certain social situations that her daughter will flatly reject friendly overtures from peers. This makes the parent very uncomfortable, but she isn’t sure how or if to intervene. She writes, “I am so torn between accepting and trusting her and wanting to teach her to be nice to others.”

For more advice on common infant/toddler parenting issues, please check out Janet's books at Amazon and Audible.

Also available for download, her audio series "Sessions" -- recorded consultations with parents discussing their most immediate and pressing concerns (SessionsAudio.com).
