Do you as a mum or a dad shout at your child?

I think that these things like not eating tea or playing with things they shouldn’t are definitely normal for this age. It’s hard if he’s come from a strict household himself. I do think that a firm no and stopping her from continuing to do the thing by gently moving her or taking things away for things like throwing or hitting is needed rather than always just distracting, but no shouting. Shouting won’t teach her anything other than to shout when she feels frustrated herself. No one is perfect all the time, but I would definitely have an issue with someone shouting regularly and not trying to change too. I hope it gets easier! Sounds like you’re doing a great job of providing some calmness for her even if he’s losing his cool! X
Same like me 😭
At this very young age these little people are just learning how everything works and need us to guide them . I think firm but calm responses can be so much more effective than shouting and they help our little ones feel safe too. I’d feel really upset if my LO was being shouted at. It is overwhelming for them. They are still so little 🥹 and I really believe it doesn’t actually help them understand what we are trying to teach them etc. Perhaps try this conversation again with him when things are a bit calmer? Sometimes it helps to focus on how it’s affecting your little girl rather than how he’s dealing with it. Also I just want to say that you’re such a caring and loving mummy. The fact that you’ve noticed this and are thinking about your little girls emotions is amazing . 💕
Say something and change it for sure regardless if he gets upset. It’s having an impact on her and how she’s regulating herself if she’s learning that type of behaviour. You’re not in the wrong
It’s not how you discipline, she’s not listening and understanding right from wrong. You need to both sit down and talk and parent as a team
