Kids feel better when they know they have been heard, so whenever possible, validate their feelings and show that you understand your child's concerns. #parenting #parentingtips
Keeping a good relationship with your child who is, in reality, totally dependent upon you is more important for their growth than trying to force them to respond in ways that they simply are not going to respond #parenting #parentingtips
Setting limits is one of the most important skills of parenting. If we do it right, our kids will internalize the ability to set limits for themselves, which is otherwise known as self-discipline. #parenting #parentingtips
Facilitate your toddler’s bonding with the other kids, and especially with the caregiver. This helps him get comfortable in new situations. #parenting #parentingtips
Every time you soothe your child and help him feel safe and understood, you're helping him build a brain and nervous system that will allow him to calm himself in the face of upset and adversity -- for the rest of his life. #parenting #parentingtips
Tantrums are nature's way of letting toddlers discharge their fears frustrations when life is just too much, so instead of feeling like a bad parent, or thinking you have a bad kid, welcome tantrums as a chance for your child to vent all those yucky feelings. #parentingtips
when your child gets so upset that they erupt into a full blown tantrum, don't try to talk them out of it. Just stay close, even if he won't let you touch him. He needs to know you're there, and still love him. #parenting #parentingtips
Kids who feel needy are more likely to tantrum. If you've been separated all day, make sure you reconnect with some roughhousing and laughter before you try to shop for dinner. #parenting #parentingtips
Toddlers carefully observe their environment, and parents can be certain that they are watching them behave. Make sure that the interactions that you have with them are polite in their tone. #parenting #parentingtips
Toddlers are not at the same level of emotional maturity as adults and tend to take negative criticism personally. Comparing them to a well-behaved cousin or peer may make her feel insecure about herself. #parenting #parentingtips
Toddlers may not always appreciate a command as they may feel that they have no control. Try making requests rather than demands to get them to do what you want them to do. #parenting #parentingtips
Avoid giving into children tantrums as it would make them think that anytime they need something, they need to resort to tantrums. #parenting #parentingtips
One mistake made by parents is that they do not have enough of a conversation with their toddler. Ensure that you are conversational so that they feel that they are being engaged and it won’t be long before they answer! #parenting #parentingtips
If parents show inconsistency in the house rules, children will feel the need to prefer the rules that suit them. #parenting #parentingtips
As a parent, you're responsible for correcting and guiding your kids. But how you express your corrective guidance makes all the difference in how a child receives it. #parenting #parentingtips
Teens tend to look less to their parents and more to their peers for role models. But continue to provide guidance, encouragement, and appropriate discipline while allowing your teen to earn more independence. #parenting #parentingtips
Parents who reason with their kids allow them to understand and learn in a nonjudgmental way. #parenting #parentingtips
“Young kids learn a lot about how to act by watching their parents. The younger they are, the more cues they take from parents.” #parenting #parentingtips
“Kids who aren't getting the attention they want from their parents often act out or misbehave because they're sure to be noticed that way.” #parenting #parentingtips
“A parent’s love is whole no matter how many times divided.” – Robert Brault #parenting #parentingtips
