@leigh_out_loud: What started as filming a quick bedtime story post, quickly turned into a potential toddler meltdown. Any parents that have been through the toddler stage will understand that what we consider to be little trivial things as adults, can mean absolutely everything to a child in that moment. I thought it be worth sharing for any parents struggling to negotiate the toddler phase, which can feel impossible at times. In no way do I have the secret formula or pretend my approach will work with all children, but this is what usually works for me and Mila. It’s also good to show that she is just like every other young child who sometimes struggles to process her emotions (especially when daddy says no! 😅)… it’s not always roleplay, giggles, sunshine and rainbows 😬 #dadlife #toddlersbelike #parentlife #parentingtips #parentinghacks

She hears no and so she gets upset. Flip it and say yes you can have your gloves in the morning when you put on your coat. She still hears yes which helps the sadness but you’re still in charge of the gloves

Me trying to understand why she can’t wear gloves to bed… I wear socks to bed. What’s the difference? Maybe her hands get cold! 😆

I love how you handled this. Stayed calm, stayed supportive, added a touch of humor by including the gloves in storytime😂. And you stuck to your no. Kids need to know they are supported even when told no. So good👏👏👏
