@cassiemomcoach: 90% of the time he climbs right in — BECAUSE of the way I’ve handled the 10% when he has a tantrum or doesn’t want to go up. Respectful parenting is not Permissive. It’s also in tune with a child’s development and what we can actually expect at that age. 🤎 #raisinglittles #toddlermom #consciousdiscipline #momtok #respectfulparenting #gentleparenting #toddlertantrum #toddlerdiscipline #parenting
Genuine question, how do you make space and time to let them do things on their own like this? I want to let my son do that, but pur daily life is SO hectic

This is my toddler and we handle it like you did but MY GOD is it tedious. Every. Single. Car ride 🫠 my ADHD brain that needs things done yesterday is screaming at me every time

My son is 14 months and it gets worse with time, he’s been doing this since he was maybe 11 months. Since he’s still little and needs help being put into the car seat do you have any tips?? Really struggling with this one 🥺

"are you doing it yourself or am I helping you" is a big oen for me as a prek educator 👌autonomy is a huge thing at this age but it doesn't have to be a battle

So I usually let my daughter do it herself but sometimes she stalls and won’t buckle herself after many reminder and will freak out if I do it for her

How do you handle when he resists? My toddler occasionally resists esp when I need to be in a hurry

What about toddlers younger than this? My 19m old is resisting the car seat SO bad. And I feel like she’s still so young she can’t process language and stuff like older toddlers can so I’m at a loss.

My 2.5 year old is also in this independence phase. He refused to be buckled today and I just gave him a min to get his wiggles out and we were on our way. The best method truly is just slowing down.

Do you ever just pick him up and put him in?

So I try this but my daughter just runs to the back of the car. She wants me to chase her like it’s a game and thinks it’s funny if I have to force her. I have an injured back and so it’s painful to chase and pick her up. What do I do?
