  1. Why not ask him to pick a book? It’s all directive parenting. Letting the child feel in charge of making decisions teaches decision making skills and independence for a win win- less crying.

  2. „If you can‘t be nice, you have to sit in timeout“
    „Are you ready to be nice?“
    „Are you ready to apologize?“
    „Where‘s your smile?“
    Sorry, no. You are teaching him that feeling his feelings is wrong and something to change and apologize for. To smile when he is feeling upset. He is a child- he is incapable of communicating the way adults do or to regulate his emotions in the same way. So when he feels like he doesn’t want to do something, when he feels tired or any number of things he might cry or even yell. That is not him being bad, that is him being a child and not having a fully developed brain yet. You will teach him to mask and hide, feel guilty, ashamed and constantly doubting if the way he feels is „okay“. He might even stop knowing how he feels, needing someone on the outside to tell him. I can’t believe so many people in the comments are praising this parenting 😢

  3. How europe and western countries people leave their tiny kids sleep alone in their room its impossible in asia specially in india……i personally feel leaving kids alone in their room all night is rude..and i feel that these people dont love their kids😢😢….even animals does not leave their tiny children alone and sleep else where……

  4. So far, my toddler has never had an issue with nap/bed time. He seems to like it honestly. We play a lot beforehand though, ever since he was really little. So probably like this mom, making it an enjoyable experience from the get-go is the key.

  5. Ta kobieta jest straszna😢 płaczące dziecko nie jest niemiłe! To tresura, a nie wychowanie. Taki maluszek, a po raz kolejny widzę, że nie chce przytulic mamy, dzieci naturalnie lgną do rodziców, ale ten mały tego nie robi. Nie wolno mu płakać kiedy tego potrzebuje, musi się uśmiechać kiedy tego nie chce….nie wyobrażam sobie, żeby zostawić dziecko w pokoju i wyjść….ponownie – do zaśnięcia takie małe dziecko potrzebuje mamy. Ten chłopczyk zapewnie zaśnie, ale dlatego, że jest tak wytresowany. Wie, że nie może liczyć na swoją mamę.

  6. Looks pretty good, especially if you have a lot of kids to take care of under a limited amount of time. I'm not entirely sure about telling him to be nice when he is just upset and does not seem to have done anything else "bad". Instead of timeout you could perhaps just continue to mirror his emotions and try to understand his feelings, but that'd take more time and energy of course. If he'd start to act bad from being upset then of course that should have some kind of consequence. But I have no experience whatsoever, so I don't really know what'd practically work or not.
