Here's the deal: If we want toddlers to handle a situation in a different, non-aggressive way, we need to tell them what they CAN do, We want to be building internal motivation, life skills, that they'll reach for in that given situation. When you simply tell them "what not to do,” they might stop right in that moment, but you can be sure they're going to push again next time.🧠. #biglittlefeelings #resilientkids #toddlerlife #toddlersoftiktok #hitting #boundaries
