BratBusters Parenting Podcast

She covers why this connects back to parenting approach, using the BratBusters Behaviour Board, the habit of repeating yourself, practical consequence ideas, how communication breakdowns can lead to yelling, what happens when toddlers act out even after being reasoned with, the overall impact of parenting styles on cooperation, and the importance of listening to your children.
