[quote=Anonymous]Dear OP, Been working with toddlers forever. I adore this precious age. It’s the terrific twos. That being said, please stop picking up your two year old, unless she injures herself. You do not want her learning “helplessness”, as another poster said on another thread. Your daughter needs you to be loving, but in a strong and firm way. She needs you to be her model of strength. Allow her to walk on her on two strong little legs. This is exactly how she’ll increase her own confidence and self-esteem.[/quote]
