Are the majority of toddlers like Cooper? I know he has other factors mixed in, but is his overall behavior the norm? I'm a huge fan of Beth's, she's an absolute stellar mom, but seeing Coop be so intense and so so difficult is disheartening. I'm sure Cooper is a wonderful child, no ill will towards him, I'm just genuinely curious.
@@DukessDingusI’ve worked with tons of kids over the past 6 years and I would say yes. I think he’s having a wonderful normal childhood despite his differences
@@DukessDingus I’d say yes, this day and age. Kids are really struggling. They have low frustration tolerance and we adults are often passing down our anxiety without knowing it. They don’t have the language skills to always express it. Behavior is language. When kids have lots of upsets, I let parents know that’s their way of saying they’re stressed.
@@shiboom1971 lmao how? he clearly has better communication skills than you. You must know that , I’m sure! I can sense that you also probably assume kids are born innate with all skills so anything a toddler does that you don’t like, suddenly becomes a faux sign of “letting kids run the house” when really…. all she’s doing is teaching her kid to communicate with other appropriately.
I'm always so impressed and grateful to see parents obviously tired but still very patient and actually talking with their child, seeing children being listened to heals my inner child so much. Hope everyone have a great day/night ❤️
@@-a5330 Same for my father 😅 it's like he didn't understand that I'm a functioning human with personal thoughts and emotions, having an open conversation about feelings is just impossible even now where I'm grown up and more than 20 yo Thoughts your way, I know how frustrating it can be ! ❤️
He will probably be just fine by the time he gets home and ready to play by then. If it’s dark and close to bed time I’d say yep but not right after school. They DON’T want to slow down this early in the day (unless they’re sick 🤧 which he might be ) . Kids are so resistant and have stored energy it seems. I wish I did. Lol 😂
The mouthed “wow” made me feel so much better. It’s so easy to go straight to “I’m a horrible parent” instead of having some grace for yourself bc being a parent can be exhausting as well as your child dancing on your absolute last nerve. Of course you love them and will never ever quit but every once in awhile they do something that makes you want to sit in the corner and bang your head against the wall. 😂❤
Toddlers are the prime example of “the slider is low to strong emotion, not sad to happy emotion” like little man is feeling so strongly but he is able to bouncy ball between happy and sad like no-one’s business, it’s fascinating to watch.
@Marlou the slider is the concept of how people believe that ‘good’ or ‘happy’ emotions are one end of a spectrum and that ‘bad’ or ‘sad’ emotions are on the other end, when in reality you can quite easily change from happy to sad in seconds, since they are both strong emotions. What Cooper seems to be doing here is exactly that, bouncing between happy and sad since they are both strong emotions, and the short attention span of a toddler makes it much easier to switch than when you get older! (The typical situation for adults is when they’re seemingly chilling, and then something small is said and it’s ‘zero to sixty’ crying “all of a sudden”)
"mom move your hand!" it makes me so happy to see him communicate his wants and needs at such a young age!!! you can tell he feels safe to do so, the world is a much better place with parents like you in it!
this is how my husband is with his glasses. but if i get one little smear on mine, i can’t unsee it & i will either clean it immediately, or if i can’t clean it right away like i’m driving or something, i’ll stare at the smudge until it gives me a headache😭🤣 i hate that it bothers me so much, i wish i could be like y’all😭😭
I love these moments their so sweet and show how much the life of a toddler can change. It’s crazy to think what is going inside their head! Love you guys stay strong!❤😊
I've followed you and Coop from the beginning and I absolutely love you both! Coop is so demanding oh my gosh! I don't know how you hold it all together. IT'S impressive! 👍💜
I love Coop's little face so much! How can you resist smothering his face with kisses? And the bombardment of conversation he attacks you with, its so adorable!!! ❤🥰❤
Thank you from all of us who no longer have toddlers & are now truly appreciative of that fact. Cute n all…but generally requiring of the patience of a saint. I love having hulking, grunting teenagers :)
I just love you two. I really love how you interact. The conversations are so random and you are so good with how you can keep him going on with positive words. He is so cute I loved when he just wanted to do what he wanted and asking to see his g -ma that was love
Hats off to you mam... Seriously... I'm a pretty patient person, but raising a kid like yours(i dont intend to berate him,ik he has his needs) would take such a toll on me... I want to have patience like yours... And this is just a minute of whole day... Blessings to cooper and mostly to you
@Mysterygiggles kids don't know how to process emotions, your whole job as a parent is to teach them how to be successful emotionally controlled adults from basically nothing. They have 0 knowledge form birth and uo until they go to school, you're one of their only sources of knowledge. When children have tantrums, typically it's not because they are bad or wrongfully upset. It's because they don't understand their emotions or how to react with them. They may not understand why the thing they want can't happen. Like her explaining her daughter is in school, he may not fully understand but he can only understand hwt he knows
That little guy has you so wrapped. It's hard work but it's also a blessing to have the opportunity to parent someone with special needs. I'm so happy Cooper has such wonderful parents
@@jhamm6162 in other videos she’s teaching him to respect her personal space (because kids are always up in Moms face and personal space), if anything it’s a great example of him learning this and applying it to himself.
@@shamanllama Ah yes the age old respect authority at all costs. So if a dad is SAing the kid you’re teaching them not to scream? By teaching them they have no bodily autonomy you’re teaching them it’s acceptable for people to touch him whenever they want.
Bless Him. Those moments when there upset and nothing is helping it makes you feel Awefull bc you can't get them over there episode!! Hang in there little momma it will get better and you 2 will look back and smile at all the ups and downs 💞
THIS! i was trying to think of a way to describe him w|o sounding offensive or mad + this is basically perfect minus the girl* part. LOL [*only way anyone thinks it's just "teenage girls" is if they've never been around actual teens. 😂 it's alllll of them. emotional rollercoasters do not discriminate, esp. when the hormones start moving in + taking over. emotional whiplash for all! 🤣)]
So sweet; you're such a good Mama. I love your videos and thank you for educating us fans. I grew up with lots of children with special needs as my Mum worked with them. They are so much fun to be with. I also have worked with many with special needs Autism being my specialty. I learn more from them. It's a great life and very rewarding. At times frustrating but you do an awesome job with Cooper. Have a grand day. Keep up the great content🤗❤️
that split second look at the end that says "I was hangry and about to meltdown on a nuclear scale but mom and a cake pop changed my mind. carry on." 😂😂😂😂
I think you are just amazing. Mother to mother, watching your genuine patience and softness in your videos just melts my heart. You were absolutely perfectly chosen for this exact mama role 💕
He is SOOO the main character and I just love that. I mean....girl you're an amazing mom, a beautiful woman and a fellow Minnesotan....but he is most definitely the star of the show and I LOVE it.
Really??? All I here this kid say is I want, I want. What about pleases n thank you, no manners what so ever, n you think this is sweet n cute? I have a child more disabled then cooper, n he barely speaks but when he asks for something he says please n when given something he says thank you, n when told no he doesn't crack it at me. This kid has no manners what so ever n cracks it till he gets it. How cute n sweet he's going to be when his older.
Not all disabled children, or children in general, reach the same milestones at the same time. This is called the “learning emotional regulation” stage. Disability can affect emotional processing, too. Your comment is degrading a young child - that’s just weird. Especially coming from a parent who says they also have a disabled child.

EMOTIONAL WHIPLASH should be in the medical dictionaries, Beth. It's a perfect identifier for what toddlers cause their moms .
He sounds over whelmed. Maybe a warm bath, calm music, and big hugs…❤

agreed 🥹
He is such a lucky boy to have you as his Mom :) he is so cute!!! But i can imagine is not easy :) love you for that :)
You are a Wonderful Momma and the way you communicate with him with such a loving sweet tone.
As someone whose glasses are perpetually dirty. The smudges more than likely bother you more than him. 😂
I sure relate to not being without my glasses, even for how long it takes to clean them.
same lol my mom is so irritated that my glasses are dirty and i just look past it
this is how my husband is with his glasses. but if i get one little smear on mine, i can’t unsee it & i will either clean it immediately, or if i can’t clean it right away like i’m driving or something, i’ll stare at the smudge until it gives me a headache😭🤣 i hate that it bothers me so much, i wish i could be like y’all😭😭
Same
I don't notice how dirty my glasses are until someone else starts cleaning their glasses 🤣😅
This is a beautiful interaction. Shows your love and patience and compassion for your child. I love it. ❤
He is speaking a lot and clearer. Go Coop!!!💖💕
It always fascinates me just WHAT can set off a toddler’s mood. He was just told to wipe his boogers and he was so very offended.
He’s such a cute and dear wee boy ❤ sending much love from Scotland for wee laddie and his mum ❤ hugs you both making me day ❤
Wow, you are raising such a wonderful, feeding, assertive human being 🩷
I can’t imagine how hard it is for her to tell him no with that face! 😭
It’s the ‘you can’t eat the dog treat’ for me that makes me chuckle
Awwww the whole “did you have a bad day” and then the “yeah” awww precious little man!!! Stealing hearts all around the world! ❤❤❤❤
The image was blurry on my phone and was wondering it if was party balloons. Nope, just a dog getting back from the doctor and being very patient
I THOUGHT THEY WERE BALLOONS TOO
SAME
Balloons was definitely my first thought too, died laughing when the pup moved
He's such a cute little boy. I enjoy these videos every time I see them.

How cute is this Child?? What a Patient Mother!! ❤❤
The sad look on his face as soon as the conversation starts 😂 it's like it was frozen that way till you responded. He's so adorable 😍🥰
EXACTLY. He manipulates her!
He is too precious!! Doing a great job, mama!
You’re such a sweet mama. We can feel the love ❤

Oh man is he adorable ❤. I love his personality

She's so patient and understanding with her child❤️
His pouty face is so adorably heartbreaking. Phew he'd be hard not to spoil
the devastation in his face about her having to go to school
Every day, I don’t know how you do it. The patience of a saint. I can't even handle myself.
He is the cutest Minnesotan kid I have ever seen
Asking your child if they had a bad day is so sweet.
You are such a good mom to this sweet little boy!

No, you are allowed to buy a children's book if you want, at the end of the day it's your money
It may seem like I'm being mean but, there is something so adorable about when he pouts and cries. I just want to squeeze him! He's so cute it hurts.
What is Caribou??
It is a coffee chain that is especially popular in MN, which is where Beth and Coop are from (I am too!!)
If you’re west coast it’s like Peet’s or Coffee Bean!
This brings back so many memories. And maybe some PTSD. 😂 Thank you for sharing!
