@macandmatchaa: Instead of yelling or losing her temper when her daughter threw an item at her dad’s face, this mom immediately removed her from the table for a calm time-out 😳 Some people say this is top-tier emotional control and gentle discipline, while others think it’s too harsh for a toddler.

Too strict? Nope. But the tantrum after should have been dealt with, too.

Good parenting I’d say. The dad would have taken care of it, but could barely contain the laughter, and mom had to do something to establish the boundary. Dad wasn’t hurt at all, but it’s the principal.

The fact that mom immediately knew she had to handle it because dad couldn’t stop laughing

This was absolutely perfect, a consequence as soon as the action was done. Most importantly telling her exactly why she was in trouble was key. Great job mom

no yelling, no hitting, just a firm voice and a completely normal punishment, that's good parenting, yeah the child cries but eventually they will learn from their mistakes

She knew immediately that it was wrong, by appologizing. The punishment was appropriate.

This was great parenting! The mom didn't yell or lose her cool and she gave her daughter an appropriate consequence and explained why her behavior was wrong!
