      I think that’s the case with kids too. Probably why Jacob picked up eating by himself without mom because the other kids did. Probably why Ross acts up cause that’s what he sees Matthew do. They follow what everyone does and relies on them to point the way. The other kids and the adults in their life are their support systen

The kids I watch now started with bottles and now they use normal sippy cups and they LOVE them!

If they wanted to carry on., they could do it in their rooms- the rest of the family would not indulge such behavior. Giving it zero attention usually shut it down quickly.

    One thing I've noticed in this and the other "supernanny" type shows is that when the mom crouches down and starts bawling the kid out, and the child starts to realize things are no longer going his way, he asserts his power over the mom by putting his arms around her neck as a way of shutting down the discussion. The kid doesn't feel a sudden desire to hug Mom. He just wants her to shut up.

    For every single family in this series, the parents are the ones who hinder their children's growth. The children use bottles, pacifiers and sippy cups far too long.

      That's because parents shape children, of course the vast majority of issues young children have outside of disorders are going to be down to the parents, because they couldn't figure out a way to stop the behaviour(normal behaviours by the way, not wanting to eat things, tantrums ect.) before it became a serious problem. And some don't even realize they are doing it, like Alison with Lucy.

    The worst of all is that I know how all that ends.
    My father, bless him, was incredibly generous and good hearted man but he made several bad judgments in his life. Such as having a second son at the age of 59. He died at 66 and my half-brother lost his mother 10 months later in highway car crash. Against my will the courts placed my brother with me, I was only 28. And man what a mess he was! He would only eat watching TV, being spoon fed, he didn’t shower on his own, he had being improperly potty trained so he needed diapers at night, had trouble sleeping at the right time, needed the lights on, would ask to sleep with me in bed, didn’t want to go to school, and was a complete wet blanket. Anything would make him cry like a kid giving him a mean look or he would start the most epic tantrums whenever he was said no. He would scream, kick, hit, punch, spit. What a mess! I had to squeeze in 8 years of proper parenting in 2.
    He’s much better now at 19, but still suffers from lingering self-confidence and insecurity issues, along with anxiety. He calls me sometimes 3:00 am because he can’t sleep and fear of an exam; then the next week he messages me: “hey, I scored top marks!”

    OMG, all these games to get the children to eat. Give him a book, distract him, spoon feed him, crush the food to liquid, offer him a dozen choices, offer rewards, threaten punishment, give a standing ovation after every bite, play food Olympics. My mother grew up in Europe during WWII, and my father grew up in this country during the Great Depression. You can imagine how they felt about wasting food. If my siblings and I had ever had the gall to throw the fits like the kids on this show do, we'd have found ourselves sitting alone in a darkened kitchen. I realize my parents' upbringing was extreme. Parents shouldn't need to have grown up hungry in order to teach their children how to eat without screaming, crying, pushing the food away, getting up from their seat, climbing on the table, crawling under the table. I mean, come on.

    These kids act like little monsters and I wonder if all of the over the top praise for tiny improvements (clever boy and clapping) isn’t going to translate into children who will expect the world to constantly applaud their every action. This may set them up for a rude and unwelcome awakening in the future. I think Tanya’s advice to Michelle to be assertive is more realistic and a better life lesson for her boys.

      There is ridiculous overpraising going on both with this set of parents, the other set of parents (episodes 1-6) and in Dr Tanya's communicating with the children. "You're capable of saying my name? Clever girl!" "You ate a piece of potato? Good boy, very good boy!" "You have no problems with staying in bed all night and stayed in bed all night? Very well done, good boy! What a precious little boy you are for doing something that's so very easy for you!" The best explanations for this behaviour are that those things took place in the early to mid 2000s and MAYBE that they have so very little time at hand to address the parents' and children's issues and the praising for praising's sake is deliberately used as a short cut. Overpraising has almost nothing to do with positive reinforcement. In fact you can treat your child like an adult as long as you take the child's lack of maturity, life experience, education, physical strenght etc. into account. You can get along just fine with kids avoiding to treat them in ways you wouldn't want to be treated because it would make you feel like a dumb little child.

      There’s some kinda complex psychological reasons for the exaggerated praise, but it boils down to this: very young children don’t understand subtle nuances in emotion or speech. If something is good, it needs to be great. If something is bad, it needs to be terrible. Very young children only know how to think in extremes and tend to be very black and white. That’s why the sleep-deprived mum had to be coached on assertiveness. If you need to be very clear and firm with reprimands you need to be just as clear and blatant with praise. Beyond that, praising little steps of progress is a technique known as shaping. You praise behaviors analogous to the desired one in order to lead them to the desired behavior. So in this case, you lavishly praise the child every time he touches food, then every time he brings it to his mouth, then every time he bites it, then every time he swallows it, then every time he finishes the whole food. Eventually, his nucleus accumbens (brain reward system) will take over and reward his eating with a rush of dopamine thus eliminating the need for external reward.

      Rocky123698745 What you describe may be so but it seems like the long way around to the same end. What you describe may be fine for parents who have nothing to do but tantalize and tempt their children to behave but is it practical for parents who have jobs, other kids and a household to run?

    • @LilyAshlyn
      @LilyAshlyn 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Rocky has got it exactly on the mark. Children need hours and hours of teaching and guidance, everything you teach them molds the person they will become. If you don't have hours to dedicate to teaching your children, then don't have children at all. This is why there are so many misbehaved children in our society, because parents who are "too busy" and can't be bothered are not able to teach and model appropriate behavior for their children.

    Why is almost four year old Lucy given a baby bottle at bedtime? Many children with these missing learning basic life skills as they grow, so parents can keep them like babies is frustrating. Then they wonder why their child won't sleep on its own, or feed themselves age appropriate foods.

  • @CeltycSparrow
    @CeltycSparrow 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I agree with Dr. Tanya.....I think Michelle's problem is pure exhaustion....she is physically and emotionally drained from trying to look after these two boys running on NO sleep. Unlike the other parents in the house who have a spouse to lean on for support (well, one does anyway) , she is alone in dealing with her boy's not sleeping in the night and she's up 20 times a night with them and so she's completely knackered during the day so she breaks and she can't deal with the discipline and then here comes another sleepless night. I think she should implement Supernanny's stay in bed technique for both boys. Its been proven multiple times to work....even in young children....and then Mom can finally get some much needed rest and she will feel MUCH more capable of dealing with her sons when her body has had a chance to rest.
    As far as little Isaac, Dad just needs to CALM DOWN when getting his son to eat. During the stress test dinner, Isaac wasn't crying....he wasn't protesting eating the food. Mom was even doing OK. Dad's stress level was through the roof even though his son was doing just fine. And he did fine with the food challenge with his brother as well. He didn't eat everything. but he ate enough.
    As for young Lucy....again, I think Mom was at the core of the problem. She has got this child so spoiled and so completely attached to her, that now she's throwing these outrageous tantrums because she has learned when she does, Mommy gives in and lets her have her way and now Mommy has buckled down and finally learned to say no. As we saw when Ms. Tanya sent them on their field trip to the golf course, Lucy was IMMEDIATELY throwing a tantrum trying to get her mother to give in and let her have her way because she wants to be the clinging monkey constantly hanging on her Mother. If it were me, I wouldn't have even allowed Mom to sit next to her. I would have had Dad sit next to Lucy. They are getting better, but its going to take time to undo all that negative parenting.

      CeltycSparrow Woken 21x in one night? Seriously? Why was she in their bedroom all night? She should have closed their door, bought a pair of noise canceling headphones, slept in her own bed with her door closed, and let them cry it out all night until they learned how to self soothe themselves back to sleep. My son didn’t sleep through the night until he was 18 months, and that’s what I did. If there’s no medical problem, they’ll figure it out. I needed my sleep in order to be a effective mother.

    • @camelopardalis84
      @camelopardalis84 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Nico Ben It's just very strange that she seems to be okay with parent's calling their children "bad children". The mother with the twins who kept getting up all night repeatedly called at least one of her sons a "bad boy" after he had BEHAVED badly. Although you could even say he behaved like a child his age in such a situation after being treated like that (both while there in this place as well as before at home) with a high enough probability would. I am not saying that the behaviour should not be addressed. Not at all. But when you are first around children (for example making an internship in a daycare) the people with an education in pedagogics, psychology or social pedagogics (as someone from Germany you know what I mean by this last term) would very soon tell you to criticise the child's behaviour and not the child as a person. That you really should not say to a child that keeps throwing a ball at a wall in a way that produces the most annoying sound things like "you're a nervewracker" or "you go on my nerves" but rather "stop playing with your ball in a way that produces this annoying sound, play in a different way with it". I know those are more words and I'm not saying that you can always talk everything out with the most loving word choice and tons of hugs. But there's not only no need but also much potential for harm in saying "you're a bad, bad boy" and putting this stamp on a child, especially one this young. Or the thing with the "you at all your dinner, you clever, clever boy". You also should refrain from saying things that are factually not true or just nonsense. Don't say to woman in a nursing home who suffers from moderate dementia "WE'll take a shower now" if only SHE is the one about to take a shower and YOU're the one only assisting her and most definitely not taking a shower yourself. It's not about not lying, it's about not confusing people. Children notice when you say nonsense like "you're a CLEVER boy for taking a bite". Call him courageous, if it is fear that keeps him from eating something. But not CLEVER. If you know a kindergarten teacher, someone working in a childcare (with an appropriate education), a pediatric nurse or a third grade teacher if it was strange or wrong of me to critisise someone with a doctor in PSYCHOLOGY for not stepping in when a mother repeatedly tells her about two-year-old that he's a "bad boy" (I am 99% sure they would have shown it in the show, had Dr Tanya told her not to do that) and for telling a boy around five(?) that he's CLEVER for eating something. Seriously, ask someone you know in person or ask the question in an online forum on such topics.
