[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been watching old episodes of Supernanny and they have helped me a lot in learning how to assert authority with my kids in a way that is not scary or punitive but is very firm. I can’t believe how effective it has been. I have found that setting limits and being very authoritative with my 3 yo has actually calmed him down considerably. I’m telling you friends, all the gentle parenting, attachment BS has harmed us. It’s ok to be firm with our kids. It benefits them.[/quote] We have been taking a firmer approach with our 3-year old, too, and finding success. We’re certainly still very loving and caring and calm, but we’re trying harder to not give into unreasonable demands and to let DC tantrum until they realize we’re not giving in. This comes from recommendation from their preschool teacher but now just feels logical. [/quote]
