Some Suggestions That May Help You As A Parent
As a parent now for approximately sixteen years I actually understand the fine balance between toddler discipline, and squashing the spirit of a young child.
When my first child Ellie was born I was totally new at this thing called parenting, and I discovered most of the parenting books to be contradictory at very best and many simply stupid at worst. This may seem harsh to some new parents who are looking for a right path as a parent.
I understand as being a parent is really a tricky business specially when it comes to discipline and especially toddler discipline, if you go for the free range approach and just let your children somewhat develop in the vain expect all is going to be well, then you'll probably be living some kind of living nightmare, with your child completely dictating the agenda and totally running your life.
On the other hand if you go for total discipline as preferred by several through the years, then you run the risk of completely losing the real essences of your children's character.
I would like to say that their is a holy grail of toddler discipline, that you may follow and tick off the list as you go, and trust me many people would try to sell it to you like that. The way I see it, it's about two core things boundaries and communication in particular as your kid starts to get to the toddler stage and beyond.
I still find this to be with my 16 and 13 old children, I have what i call my fall back position, that's as far as I will go on any given issue, that's my boundary that in many instances my kids over a few years have learnt to recognize, however within those boundaries their is a lot of opportunities of freedom of expression and chances to grow as individuals which I personally feel is vital.
To do this though good communication is key while implementing toddler discipline, to this end I have been really privileged to have learnt things such as NLP that have helped me shape my language skills and body language to get maximum engagement with my kids.
