Posted by admin on December 16th, 2008 filed in GeneralYou dread the scene but it’s almost as inevitable as the sun shining. Your two-year old has frequent toddler tantrums. Worse, you’re not coping too well. You alternate between ignoring his cries completely until he tires himself out and quiets down or yelling at him to calm down until you’ve tired yourself out to calm down. You’re struggling to find a middle ground to cope with toddler tantrums in your home but that’s proving to be very difficult. Have you tried gentle persuasion?
Gentle persuasion is a communication technique unlike the highly-tensed confrontational approach. It advocates the use of language as an effective way to instill obedience and discipline in your children. Think about it. If your wailing child hears a soothing gentle voice instead of an irritated whine while his crying his lungs out, what would that do to his toddler tantrums? It’s not very difficult to do. Learn how from Chris Thompson’s step-by-step audio course called ‘Talking to Toddlers’. Whether you’re desperate for a relief or simply a curious parent, you’d find effective, stress-free techniques to control toddler tantrums. Stop feeling guilty about your inability to calm him down. Do something about it instead.
