Disciplining Tips - Toddlers

I am a certified preschool teacher with a degree in Early Childhood Education and behavior modification and discipline are my specialties.

In this video I touch briefly on tantrums, the mysteries that are toddlers and how to effectively discipline them. If you try this method, let me know what you think. If it doesn't work for you, there are other tactics that I could give you to try. Behavior modification is all about patience, creativity, trial and error and perseverance! Good Luck! :)

wow i pop my kid in the hand when hes bad. just a little sting to get his attention and i say no. he NEVER does it again.

@mandjandc I just prefer positive discipline. If you can stay positive and get the same results, why not? Children learn best through what is modeled for them and I believe that hitting children makes them more likely to hit when they are trying to fix their own problems. Keep in mind that they are learning how to handle emotions through watching us so keeping your cool and taking a more positive approach will teach them to do the same. Just something to keep in mind... Thanks for watching!

Maybe you can help me with this question. I am a person who appreciates what I have, and down the road if I become a father I want to teach my children to appreciate what they have. Thinking to myself on how my parents raised me I should definitely teach them at an early age. My question to you is when in there age should I teach this and how should I go about it?

@MakingLifeSimple I agree. My 1 1/2 year old was getting popped.. but she has developed a bad habit of popping when she gets mad. I am trying to find ways to stop it. She also says "mine" a lot and snatches, so it gets very frustrating.

I have a 3 yr old girl and we are having some major problems. She is very independant and strong willed. She was recently diagnoised with Sensory Disorder. She is a handful. She refuses to sit in timeout ( I spent 5 hrs with her, putting her back in timeout and she continues to get up). She throws herself on the ground, bits herself, throws anything that she comes into contact with. She is awful in public (store/restaurants). If she doesn't want to do it, she finds a way not to. HELP

@xxxjoelpolexxx You are right, Lucy. The advice given in this video is to be used with TODDLERS (1-3 years old) and should be modified to best fit what is best for each unique child. As I suggested for @4u2nv29, for any babies younger than 1 year, just redirect to an appropriate activity.
