How to Stop Toddler Defiance Before It Becomes Teenage Rebellion
✨ Want to feel more in control with your parenting in just 1 day? Join my Confident Parenting Workshop on October 9th and learn 5 quick strategies you can use immediately: https://www.drlindsayemmerson.com/liveworkshop In this video, we’ll cover the critical parenting shift every child between ages 1 and 5 needs—establishing yourself as their loving authority. You’ll learn how to set consistent boundaries, explain the “why” behind your rules, and focus on safety, respect, and responsibility. These strategies reduce power struggles, build cooperation, and set the stage for a lifelong respectful relationship. New to my podcast?  I’m Dr. Lindsay Emmerson, a clinical psychologist and Mom of 4, and I help parents find that sweet spot between support and structure that psychology research tells us is best for families now and best for our kids in the future. ------------------------------------------- Let's connect!
