- Believe in yourself as a parent and maintain a confident attitude.
- Children are highly attuned to their parents' feelings, so parental calmness promotes child calmness.
Taking Control
- Confidently block unwanted behavior, both physically and verbally, without being harsh.
- Do not let a three-year-old dictate your actions; take charge calmly and firmly.
