My son is so stubborn.... He's learning he can use with voice .. and scream in full blown anger...
Same thing here 🫣 it is frustrating! I use the “ as soon as” approach. As soon as we complete ( task I asked for) then we can do ( what toddler wants). We also are using a “be calm” plan for tantrums. First we identify the big feelings then ask what would help make it better. Ie: Its okay that you feel mad, would you like to go stand outside or have some water to help you feel better? Make sure to help them identify the emotions and validate them!
@Briana I really like the “be calm” plan you mentioned! I’m gojng to try that! I’m constantly redirecting, and offering alternatives or suggestions for things I know she enjoys… but when she’s set on something, not even the best activities in the world will change her mind haha
Did you try ask her what does she want to do then?
