Description
Toddlers are often misunderstood, with what parents view as bad behavior being just curious exploration. This age is about individuation, seeking control, and learning the world. However, this can lead to power struggles, tantrums, and hindered growth and creativity. Social worker Jamie Glowacki offers practical advice on raising toddlers, focusing on five key components: engaging the mind, working with the body, understanding behavior, creating a good environment, and being the parent. Her approach is about doing more with less, bringing back a more natural childhood from the brink of over-scheduled and over-stimulated parenting. With her down-to-earth, friend-to-friend advice, Jamie aims to help parents experience the joy of parenting again, giving their child and themselves the freedom to grow at their own pace.
