This is also why you never want to make a soul single career over of your passion. It becomes a chore.

Background music so annoying

My 3 year old son is incredibly strong willed and just plain strong. I'm going to try this but my first thought was that he's going to be attacking me the entire time. He will be hitting, scratching, biting, or head butting me. If I'm close enough he'll grab my hair or glasses. I'm at my wits end.

Thank you for this video. How about your thoughts on part time day care?

I am a single mom of 2, my son is 18mo old, i also have a 9wk old daughter. He has recently started short screechs/shrieks as well as very loud crying fits when hes told no (ei like when he wants the blanket she's on or tries taking her binkie away from her etc) When applying this method, how do i correctly and effectively keep him from moving, turning or backing away from my hand? Am i supposed to hold one hand on his mouth and the other behind his head? So essentially wrestle with him flailing until he gets too tired to keep fighting it? His behavior is dramatically affecting my newborn during sleep and ultimately just really scares her. I don't want to make any of this worse for either of my children by incorrectly applying this method due to not understanding completely. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Im going to try this. My toddler is ridiculous. I believe he likes the attention he gets from me. I have to do a better job at helping him.

My son is 2 and I’m enrolling him into daycare now because I’m finally going to work. It’s best for MY mental health and my care for him. I appreciate this video because it makes me think about the negatives and this assures me that I’m okay with everything said 🩷

Thank you so much for your videos. You’re a great and intentional mother. I appreciate your videos as a 25 year old stay at home mother. Obedience, training, and maintaining a relationship where the child knows the parents are in the authoritative position is so important, but I can’t find that information from most people because people think that the word “obey” alone is wrong and taboo. You show me that you can be a kind and gentle mother and still maintain the authoritative role. Thank you so much and God bless🙏❤️

Thank you so much for this! I followed your idea of putting my index finger on his lips and say “shh, no screaming “ and it stopped!!!

OMG, daughter in law’s niece 4 yrs old screams every time she wants something…seems like it’s non stop when we’re w them. Yes I can stay away and may have to. No one seems to care to stop this behavior…….. (she is verbal, bosses her parents around) l can’t stand it…. my 3 kids never had this behavior so my tolerance is Zero.

By all means provide a night light

Don’t let them in your bed in the first place. I raised mine in the ‘60’s and ‘70’s and I never heard of any child sleeping in a parents bed.

This video is just want I needed ❤

What are the imposed consequences

How do you stop an almost 3 year old from stomping their foot and saying no?

Think I’m going to start trying this with my son. He’s almost 2 and he likes to run off when I take him outside. It gives me anxiety so I don’t like taking him outside bcus it’s hard to tell him not to run off and the last time he sat on the ground for a while and we talked. Then once he got up he took off running again lol so I told him he can’t run away and to stay by mommy. He then sits back down and I also have a 7 mo but she was in their stroller wagon and can’t really see us. So I have to keep my eyes on her as well. Majority of the time I take them walking to avoid him running off but I know it’s hindering him from exploring outside. But I live near a busy street and just want to keep him safe. And once it’s time to come in my son will thro a tantrum really bad and he does this every time I bring him inside. I try to talk to him and tell him we can’t stay outside but it still takes him a while to settle down. Is there any tips or advice on how to manage his tantrums?

Thank you for your amazing video, i live in europe and i quit my corporate job and started a half time business at home to be with my daughter as much as possible . Since she is 18 months she goes 3 hours per day to a very small daycare (ratio 3 to 1), very nice staff , lots of montessori and outdoor activities, when she cried they call me and let me come to see her or pick her up. Her nap time and the rest of her day is with me always. I was able to breastfeed until 2,5 years old. She is now almost 3 years old and very happy to go see her friends and do the activities for 3 hours each day but if i have to do it all over again i will not put her there before the age of 2. I hope these 3 hours per day did not harm her i still feel so guilty because i learned more about how it is important to be with our kids at this age 😢

Thank you for telling parents that it would be best if their young children were at home with their mothers. That is really the ultimate solution because babies and young toddlers are naturally going to prefer their mothers to anyone else. The fact that children have separation anxiety is proof that they have bonded with their mothers and that's a good thing! Childcare should be a last resort.

You’re disturbed, providing a guide to child molestation!

In our family she would got spanked for being a snitch.

Never let them into your bed in the first place! When my kids were growing up in the ‘70’s, no one co slept with their babies.

I still believe in Santa but I decided this after Mom told me the truth. I like it because it's fun and it reminds me of when I was little. I still write Santa letters but I still believe in the true meaning of Christmas.

I like to check out churches. I would only like to know which one you go to so I can check it out online? I also like traditional churches that sing hymns. I'm not asking about personal information, just the church because I like to check out churches online everywhere. And I have enjoyed several of your videos.

I don't know if your church has an organ or just a piano, but if they do have one, that might be one of only a few places where the toddler might get to hear that instrument. When it's time to sing hymns, the child can listen for that instrument and maybe they'll begin to recognize it as they go to service more. They may begin to look forward to listening to the hymns the congregation sings in the future because of that and maybe one Sunday, the parent can discuss the instrument after a few church visits. I did not go to a traditional church until I was 5 years old, I associated hymns with snuggling with Mom at night because she would sing them every night. But the church we were going to sang modern praise and worship songs.

Yes, I work at a center and I can’t tell you how many times the children come to me crying for his/her mom or dad. So sad! Parents, pray that God makes a way for you to care for your own child(ren)

Eye to eye conversation alone is fundamental for any child, we see the impact it has on learning about their emotions and how to manage them. Moreover, it cultivates open and transparent communication that will bear fruit into adulthood

Even though it is a struggle as a single mom, I have refused to put my children into daycare. I only get jobs that work around my child's needs to ensure they get more of my time than anyone else. Being a mom is the best and i wouldnt trade it for anything.

16 months baby shouting loudly😂😂

Peas were one of the few vegetables I actually liked as a kid! My siblings not so much. Once, when I was 11, my brother was 9 and my sister was 3, my mom served a meal with Peas on the side. Just for fun, and because she knew my brother and sister weren't fond of peas, she put 3 peas on the plate of my 3-year-old sister and 9 peas on the plate of my 9-year-old brother. I got a regular serving, because for a change this was something I wasn't picky about. She didn't say anything. My 3-year-old sister looked at her plate, my brother's plate, and then my plate. You could tell she was thinking, but before we could ask what she was thinking about, she asked, with big eyes and an amazed voice, referring to the huge pile of peas on my plate: "How old is Erika?" 😂 It's one of my favorite family anecdotes. What a smart 3-year-old to make that connection, right?

Genius! As a former picky eater I'll keep this in mind for my future kids.

So this is why habit tracking doesn't work for me long-term! Makes total sense! 🤯

I read Martha Peace's The Excellent Wife years ago and she mentioned exactly that about the second income going to other cost rather than really contributing to the household having more.

We had the choice of either 30min of playing on the computer (per kid, and we got to watch each other play) or watching one movie per day. We also had two screen free days per week. This was before smartphones. Now I'm a grown-up with a smartphone, just as addicted to it as those that grew up with no boundaries, except I have positive memories without screens to look back on. Any advice for grown-ups on training themselves?

As someone whose parents divorced when I was 18 (though the divorce was announced out of the blue a year earlier), I am so glad to see this video! Absolutely, divorce is not good. It tears families apart in unimaginable ways and shatters children's foundation of life. Even when the divorce happens when the children are "old enough to deal with it". Great. I get to "deal with" reassuring my future kids that even though their grandparents don't live together, nothing will ever separate their parents... Neither of my parents had divorced parents or grandparents. That gave me such security as a child. Security that my children won't have at the same level.

How does this video have no comments? More people need to see this. I don't have kids yet, but hope to someday. This channel is really informative!

I don't believe in spanking children for poor exam results some children just can't do certain subjects I am in England we once had religious instruction and one of the boys said but sir we don't believe in God , the teacher became angry , in this case a pupil doesn't want to learn the subject , I am a Christian myself . ❤❤❤❤❤❤

This must be below 18 months..with regards to the milestones..in canada we have generous mat leave and are home for that duration

I feel sending kids to day care for few(3-4) hours a day helps them interact with other kids and gives you a break and take rest and also you wint miss them much and still van teach them through out the day and enjoy the milestones.

Speaking from experience. A child with low self esteem is gonna turn into a teen with low self esteem, then turn into an adult with low self esteem.

What ages are you starting this method? What about 1 yr olds who fling/throw food across the room when in high chair?😳

Thank you Miss. It was so helpful.

My baby is 3 1/2 yr. She is getting much angry. Most of the time after sleeping or while sleeping she is hitting me and saying go like that my dad also if she does wrong thing shouting. I also try to control her she says go go like that hitinh quickly she changes to angry mood earlier not like that

Thats why we shouldn't change the traditional values

This mahes me feel a bit as i have used correction at bedtime and have had to use it more thah once but they know the consequebces

This seems a little complicated for my 24 month old boy. My closest friend has a 22 month old boy as well, we see each other many times a week so these two boys have had lots of interactions. This boy is often pushing, hitting and taking toys away from mine- and the mom is trying to handle it but it seems like nothing is breaking through. My boy is very mild mannered and usually takes it with a pretty good attitude. Although this past week he was getting pretty fed up and wash starting to push back occasionally. I don't want him to be a pushover and just take it when other kids are being jerks to him, and I also don't like constantly swooping in and solving all of his problems for him. Maybe this other child needs to feel the natural consequences of being hit back by my boy before he gets the hint? Maybe you could do a video on young toddler fighting?

How about 2,5 y.o son throwing toys until broken and it's repeat everyday? In this case Me as a Mom already told him from calm until became an evil (you know what i man) I think it's really weird, Like my son really don't care with what i said to him day by day everyday when my son feels happy, he throwing anything too until broken slow but sure, makes me crazy.. really! He like to HIT me too, or other people. He always make me MAD everyday for real I think something wrong here

Thank you for this video! I’ve been practicing this with my 21mo and she comes 90% of the time, but I wonder if it’s too early to start explaining consequences? At what age do you start reinforcing with words and actions?

Are all of these steps necessary for an 18 month old? He understands a lot of language but he can’t speak very well yet

Ha ha omg I was open to be all on board and then suddenly spanking?! What the fuck? Morality aside hitting kids is illegal as fuck in my country. Hell no!

I’ve come back to watch this video for baby number 2. I’m really struggling! My 18 month old refuses to sleep in his cot throughout the night and keeps climbing out. I put him in his cot repeatedly but he literally screams until I give up.
