5 Things You Need To Know About Hitting
Manage episode 444275213 series 3386176
Ever wonder why your toddler keeps hitting, even though you’ve told them it’s not okay a million times? In this episode, I explain the real reasons behind toddler hitting and how you can respond without losing your cool. It’s all about guiding them with kindness, understanding, and big-hearted boundaries.
Here are a few of the must-know insights from today’s episode:
- Toddlers are not mini-adults: Their brains are still developing, and hitting is often just a result of frustration or poor impulse control!
- Negative attention is still attention: They’ll take whatever interaction they can get. Respond calmly to avoid reinforcing the behavior.
- Hitting is their way of communicating: Those little hands sometimes fly when words fail. Put on your detective hat and look for the unmet need behind the behavior.
