Please help

How do you get your toddlers to listen to you? Because mine does not listen to me at all. I’m ready to lose my mind because I feel like a failing mom

You’re not failing, I promise.

Have you heard of Big Little Feelings? I love their stuff, and it’s so helpful in these stages when you want to pull your hair out

@Kelsey I feel like I’m failing because I get so aggravated that’s he’s not listening to me and I feel guilty about it :( I’ve heard of it but never really looked into it

@Christine I’ve tried that and it worked for a little, but now he’s rebelling. Everything is a fight and a tantrum. He’s a smart kid so he knows what he’s doing, but acts like he doesn’t understand. So I’m like what am I doing wrong?

@Christine yeah he’s in daycare 5 days a week

I second big little feelings. I follow them on insta and get their newsletter. Toddler brains are mush and they don’t have great attention spans so you kinda have to choose your battles and give two choices when you can. It’s hard to have to listen to someone tell you what to do all day every day so you have to remind yourself they’re having a hard time not giving you a hard time.
