How To Deal With Your Kid’s Tantrums Without Throwing One Yourself Ft. Dr Becky

Aleen and Brittany are joined by Dr. Becky Kennedy, to talk about
the all-too-familiar topic of temper tantrums and trying (sometimes
unsuccessfully) to manage your kids’ emotions. They start off with
an explanation of Dr. Becky’s gentle approach to parenting and how
to try it yourself. Next, they share practical tips for being an
assertive parent, when being restrictive is too much, and how to
build a strong relationship with your child. Then Dr. Becky breaks
down the nature of child tantrums, including why they happen, and
how to avoid throwing one yourself in the process. They discuss
examples of how parents can help kids with emotional
self-regulation, then close out the show with a conversation about
the nature of forced apologies and what to do when your child just
won’t say sorry. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
