Irrespective of age, children need a listening ear, validation without judgment, and a feeling of significance.
They often show their needs through unacceptable behaviors. So our job is to understand the feelings behind the behaviour and help them through the process.
Freaking out at them will make them suppress those feelings and we definitely don’t want that.
So next time your child is after you saying mumma mumma mumma, get down and connect 🙂
