005 - Toddler Aggression: When to Worry featuring Dr. Jack Herrin & Dr. Janys Lim

About this episode

Do your toddler’s kicks or hits have you questioning if it’s more than just the "terrible two's"?

One of the most common questions I get asked is “When should I worry about my toddler's aggressive behavior?”

And if that's your question, we've got you covered today because I've invited two trusted developmental and behavioral pediatricians to join us.



BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH: 

  • The single most common reason behind a lot of what we call "toddler aggression" (and it has nothing to do with your toddler wanting to hurt others!)
  • One vital thing parents can do to prevent and manage "aggressive behavior"
  • If you've been told, "You need to spank your child!" by someone who's seen your child hit or kick - you'll know why this backfires

Find solutions to aggression, power struggles, and other challenging behaviors. Get our book, The Discerning Parent's Guide to Toddler Behavior.
