In this short segment, the speaker critiques outdated parenting advice that labels a child's tantrums as manipulative or histrionic, and instead promotes a gentle parenting approach that combines empathy with clear, firm boundaries. She explains that the child's recent behavioral outbursts are likely linked to recent changes in her nanny, nursery, and the arrival of a younger sister, suggesting that big emotions manifest as challenging behavior. The speaker invites viewers to join a free masterclass titled 'The 3 Secrets to Managing Tantrums, Meltdowns and Kids Who Say No' for more detailed strategies, offering to send a link upon request.

Chapters

Old-fashioned advice to this kind of behaviour would have been, 'That child's being manipulative. She needs to be told no. She's just histrionic.' And parenting is different now. And if you like the idea of gentle parenting combined with firm and clear boundaries, then you'll probably like what I have to say. What I know about this child is she's had changes in a nanny and she's also had changes in her nursery. So So she's dealing with new things and she's got a younger sister. Children will manifest their big feelings in behaviour, and that is what is behind it. If you'd like to know more about dealing with this kind of behaviour, please join my free masterclass. It's called 'The 3 Secrets to Managing Tantrums, Meltdowns and Kids Who Say No'. Just message me below and I'll send you the link to join.
