"obedience is an unreasonable expectation for any age ", what? ??? so…..when should we expect our children to obey their authorities? the Bible is very clear about how to train children to become obedient. Proverbs is a WEALTH of guidance. i have a hard time taking this sweet lady’s advice when that statement is her theme. so, if obedience is not the GOAL,then…,what’s the point of the rest of the training? my 21 month old knows right from wrong, and is obedient to our requests about 90% of the time….i KNOW that obedience is a completely reasonable behavior to expect….with consistent firm, loving, discipline, and lots of love and attention, affirming his value to me, as my child.
wow…still getting over her statement.
parents there is hope, when we parent the way God says to. He made our children anyways, surely He knows how to train them to be productive, smart, strong and loving adults one day.
I have a 1 year old
Hi Lori! Thanks for these videos! They are really helping me.
Not long ago Ignacio (2) was playing with a friend and hitting him.
I picked him up violently an put him in his room saying " you are staying here, you have to learn not to hit people "
Today I can do this:
I’ll pick him up gently, maybe walking a bit with him taking him to another playing area and while playing with him I can say:
You hit Juan When I’ve told you not to.
It seams like your having a hard time with that let me help.
It is hard to control our bobbies when we are exited. You are so exited Juan came to visit us.
Let’s take a big breath and try again.
I won’t let you hit Juan but I’m here to help so let’s try again.
I love you.
What do you think?
Love
Insightful look into this very important aspect of parenting, lord knows it is well appreciated

wish my stupid ass father’s dumb ass had sern this before traumatizing us. emotional moron he was
very helpful thanks
I really enjoyed this video, extremely helpful thank you!
Hi Lori! Thanks for this video. It’s nice there are videos like this to help parents with the essential parenting skill as this is one of the toughest skills to master. So just today, I got a call from my daughter’s school and her teacher wants to meet up with me next week. I suspect that my daughter did something bad in school. And so I’m right coz when I talked to my daughter she told me she hit a classmate. I’m not going to bother getting into the details coz my concern is ‘aggression e.g. Hitting a classmate’ has been an issue for my daughter for five years. She is 10 years old now and in 4th grade. I’m very, very concerned that this has been happening for years and no matter how much I tell her it’s bad and i’m sure she knows what to do, she can’t control herself. I know she can’t take other kids jokes/making fun of her and she always resolves to aggression. What donI need to do. I feel so frustrated.
Thank you Lori for your encouragement.
I haven’t been able to watch your video on how to help my 2 year old baby not to hit.
Apparently because of my geographical location. South America.
You have another way for me to see it. I think it would really help.
Blessings.
Hi I was wondering if you could give me some advice. Lately mealtimes have been a struggle with my son. He is just over 2 1/2 years old and loves to play and explore a lot more than eat. My husband and I are unsure how to handle this without resorting to taking his toys away or turning off the TV or threatening to do so. We certainly don’t want to punish him for being curious and liking to explore his world, but we also don’t want him to go hungry. We have never had this sort of problem before he has always enjoyed his food and eating I assume it has something to do with his age. How can we get our son to stop playing and sit down and eat his food without resorting to tears and arguing?
it was pretty helpful but I think I have a totally different situation. He is in kindergarden about to start preschool this year he has been having problems putting his hands on people including the teachers today he had an incident where he was throwing chairs at the teacher. whenever he comes home from school we ask him what did he do that day what did he have for lunch did he learn anything sometimes we ask him on the ride home sometimes we wait until later on in the day it seems like he don’t want to open up completely or he’s having problems trying to explain himself or most common answers are I don’t know, because or he will just agree if we suggest an answer. he is not my biological son he is my girlfriend’s son and it’s just him and her at the house he’s never around in the violent or unproper people I guess you can say if you have any suggestions on trying to get him to open up that would be grateful
thank you so much for this video
Thank you 🙂
Although I very much appreciate the advice, the guilt of how I react at times to my 2.5 yo makes my heart hurt. I’m glad there are recourses like you to help parents learn to do better♥️
Are you going to have any workshops in the Boston area? I’d love to attend… if you do workshops that is lol
I love it. I’ve been resorting to the 5 perps lately especially with my four year old during this transition with a new born. Poor guy. We have great moments but I ruin them when I use these 4 techniques. 🙁 I’ll have to watch this video more to get it down and get my confidence back on how to engage politely. Thank you!!
WOW you look very beautifull kiss from colombia
Re-fram ( from today.) Instead of demanding my 4 yr old gets out of the car by saying.." I asked you to get out of the car, I’m hot let’s go now " I could have said. "I know you enjoy going for rides in the car, we are home now let’s go in and get cooled down in the ac." Or " I know you like being in the car, its hot in there I can help you out of the car." Something like that. 🙂
Nice one
I want to tattoo this on my arm! Brilliant! I was doing this the old way and couldn’t figure out a better way. Thank you!

Really thankful for this. Thank you!
Thanks for the great advice! Just finding your channel now but hey the advice still sticks!
I took away a telephone shower roughly from my 3 year old hands. The he didn’t what me to dress him. This was after a difficult swimming class where he hit his teacher and a boy.
At the end I said… I know you like to cooperate to the harmony of the family. Please help me dress you. He accepted.
From the beginning I should have said.
I know you like playing in the shower. I know it’s fun. Now is time to go and play outside with the plane and the horse at the main hall. This should have helped.
Let’s try again to turn of the water and go play outside.
Please give me some inputs… Now I’m feeling guilty.
Love to you all.

We live in an apartment complex with a playground, and my child was so excited to be outside, the other day, that he kept running from my sight and potentially endangering himself. I spanked him, but I feel like I could have acknowledged his excitement, held his hand, and told him that I could help him stay safe while his body felt like running in unsafe areas. I really hope I’ve gotten the gist of this video.
That was a great video. I’m guilty of raising my voice and telling my 4 year old that she’s not listening to me. I’m going to try what you recommend. Thank you so much. I just had the thought to look up how to be a better parent here on YouTube and I’m so grateful that YouTube is available. I really appreciate your help. Happy Holidays.
Lori, you are the bomb! Do folks say that still?
Thank you. How is that my 3.5 yr. Old is perfect at daycare and anybody else when I AM ,as mother, not around? At home he is very whiney almost every 5 minutes, doesn’t speak full sentences, wants me to pick him up ,can’t play by himslef, calls me when ever he doesn’t see me (walking to the kitchen or bathroom)…. Very frustrating. Thanks for any advice
Thanks for your video. I’m actually struggeling putting in action this kind of calmer parenting methods (my boys are 21months & 3 y-old) so your example is quite helpfull.
I hate parenting! I read and watch all these videos and I am so overwhelmed. Having kids is the worst thing I ever did…I didn’t plan them. I just like sex and now I am sitting here watching this video longing for my old life of Freedom away from the screaming and crying and parenting videos. I’m packing my bags and running away for sure!! Thank you for this video. It sent me over the edge. I’m outta here! Bahamas here I come!
Fantastic…can’t wait to try ur techniques

SO helpful! Thank you !
Thanks for the helpful tips. BTW you look like Kate Beckingsale 😀
I believe that listening to "hear and understand" instead of listening to "respond" always helps in communication with everyone! Great video!
