Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about... - How to incorporate the parenting knowledge you've acquired without losing sight of your own gut instincts. - Understanding what your job as a parent is when your child feels thwarted (and why making them stop yelling might not be your true end goal) - Unpacking the underlying question of: What do I do if my child is screaming volitionally as a manipulation tactic? - Whether your child is in a full-blown tantrum or just slightly dysregulated, the key strategies for addressing their underlying struggle. - How to respond to the behaviors (like yelling, eating, spitting, etc.) that you have no true control over. - How to find that middle space between not making your child feel responsible for your feelings without having to abandon all your own needs.

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about... 2:20 - At 3 years old, kids often start to have more desires for autonomy. 4:13 - The more we can be a predictable container and create consistent routines and boundaries for our kids, the less they will feel a need to test limits. 7:30 - Theory of Mind is the ability to understand that there are perspectives different from one's own. This only starts coming online at around 5 years old. 10:42 - Understanding your 3-year-old's brain development helps you to take their behaviors less personally. 11:55 - Building distress tolerance and impulsivity control will ultimately translate into executive functioning skills over time. 16:24 - How to stretch your child to help them to get from A to Z. 19:20 - There is a whole different skill set for doing something when you don't feel like doing it versus just the skill required to perform the specific task in and of itself (like getting dressed in the morning versus getting dressed in the morning WHEN YOU'D RATHER BE PLAYING). ✨We want to hear from you!

Toddlers are often misunderstood. They're no longer babies, yet they still have very little knowledge of the world and the way things work—something that is easy to forget when we are constantly being blown away by their maturity and developmental leaps at this age. I am so excited to be joined this week by the co-authors of the Terrific Toddlers series, Carol Zeavin and Rhona Silverbush to talk all things toddlerhood. We'll help you learn and understand exactly how you can best support your kiddo through some common toddler situations (like potty training, sharing, becoming a big sibling, and separation anxiety) all of which will help you to walk away from this episode with a deeper understanding of just what life looks like through the eyes of your toddler.

In this episode, we'll help you understand why this is developmentally healthy, what you can do during power struggles and outside the heat of the moment to reduce them, and how our own mindset can influence our child's behavior.

It's developmentally normal, even typical, for toddlers and young children to bite. But that doesn't mean we just sit back and let it happen. Here to talk about the many reasons children bite and how parents can effectively respond to this behavior is the co-founder of Upshur Bren Psychology Group, Dr. Emily Upshur. In this episode we'll talk about exactly what to do when your child bites, plan b and c for when that strategy isn't working, and advice for what to do before and after the bite occurs to work toward preventing it from happening again in the future. Whether your child bites every now and then or this is a pattern you aren't sure how to break, this episode will offer you strategies you won't want to miss! I want to hear from you!

As parents, we don't always get it right. But having the tools and skills to process our own big feelings and navigate emotion regulation in ourselves can have a big impact on how we support our children. Joining me to talk about ways we can establish a healthy relationship to our emotions and teach our children to do the same is the founder of Curious Neuron, Dr. Cindy Hovington. This episode will help you learn the benefit of slowing down, how to cut yourself some slack, and why the best way of teaching is through modeling. You'll hear a psychologist and neuroscientist with 5 kids between them share their own relatable experiences with parenthood and offer strategies for using language, physiology, and brain science to create a honest and balanced approach to emotion regulation.

Did you know there is a difference between a tantrum and a meltdown? Do you know what that difference is? Dr. Emily Upshur, from Upshur Bren Psychology Group, is back to answer those questions and help arm parents with the tools they need to best support their child through each. We'll discuss what is happening in your child's brain and body when they're dysregulated, why these aren't manipulative behaviors, and address the misconception that parents need to ignore bad behavior as a means of not reinforcing it.

Here are some signs you might have a “threenager” — a 3-year-old with a serious attitude.
While I am a follower of RIE (resources for infant educarers) and use responsive parenting principles in the way I choose to raise my own children, that doesn't mean I 100% follow these prescriptive practices to a tee. In this episode, I am opening up and revealing 5 so called “parenting rules” that I break as a mom. Understanding the framework behind your own rules can help you identify and feel comfortable breaking some of them from time to time. It can be incredibly liberating to give yourself permission to be flexible in your parenting and prioritize your relationships, attunement and connection over always getting it “right."

We all know how incredibly draining and stressful dealing with three year old behavior can be when you're not sure how to handle it. Among the parent grapevine I am sure that you have heard that this so-called “bad behavior” starts with the Terrible Twos and often gets worse before it gets better. Hence, the threenager stage was born. Today I give support and a couple of tips on navigating this really tough season of parenting!
Hey, Mama! Are you anything like me... Dealing with a threenager at home who thinks he can get away with screaming, throwing, kicking, punching...you know all the negative behaviors? Yep, that's me too! You want them to learn how to express themselves, feel validated, and get out their emotions, but you also want them to know that it's important to be kind, and it's not okay to use aggression or hurt someone when feeling angry. How do you handle that? Well, I'm so glad you asked! In today's episode, we are going through six helpful things to remember to get your threenager through those trying moments, help her feel validated, and teach her that being unkind is not an okay way to handle frustrations. We also have to get down to the why behind the behaviors, and once we understand that, we are much more likely to handle those trying moments with a little more grace and even confidence. Thanks for listening! Michelle

Are terrible twos or threes worse. Plus music from #MECAP

Today we talk about the Terrible Twos vs. being a Threenager. As the twins transition from 2 to 3 we as parents have no idea what the fuck we're getting ourselves into. Except more booze!
Episode 298: Attitudes. Backtalk. “Threenager”. “Two going on 18″…. As modern day Mommas, we’ve heard it all, right? We “think” we know what to expect from our children and their behavior in the upcoming years, but is that really our reality? Whether you have littles at home or you are welcoming in those middle school years, it is my hope today that you will walk away inspired and ready to take action on your parenting approach when handling bumps in the road that we will ALL inevitably encounter.

Karla - nada Stash Enhancement Emily- Review yarn from Round Mountain Fibers - corriedale fleece, spinning wheel, 100% wool Karla - Sorrento retreat/birthday haul Meet the Knitter - Amy Name: Amy McKay Raverly alias: amyelisha Other Social media? @amyelisha on instagram (my account is private to protect pictures of my daughter, but I do love connecting with other knitters so don’t be shy about sending me a follow request!) When and how did you first learn to knit? I think it was in 2014, and I learned by watching YouTube videos. Every time I encountered a new stitch or technique I would just watch videos and practice until I figured it out. My own grandmothers had long since stopped knitting by the time I had an interest, but I’m hoping to teach my daughter in a few more years. What was your first project? A cotton dishcloth. I knit 3 of them on some terrible plastic needles from Michael’s, but despite some dropped stitches and random yarn overs, they are still workhorses stashed away with my cleaning supplies! What is your biggest knitting disaster? Hmm. Nothing comes to mind really. I tend to stop long before something ends disastrously (in knitting..not necessarily in life!). I knit a Gaptastic Cowl as one of my earliest projects, before I knew what gauge was, and it was monstrously huge. I’m talking, could-have-clothed-a-linebacker big. Needless to say, it got frogged! What are you most proud of as a knitter? I’m proud to create beautiful, useful, long lasting items that can be tangible examples for my loved ones of how much I care about them (because it’s a big time & energy investment!). And, when I knit for myself, I’m proud to engage in an activity that is a powerful act of self care both in the actual making of the thing, and then in the wearing of it. It really feels like I’m nurturing myself when I cast on something lovely with only myself in mind. We should really call it self-love knitting, rather than selfish knitting! What are you favorite items to knit? Stuffed toys for the important tiny humans in my life, and shawls for myself Are you a process knitter or a product knitter? I’m both! I used to be more of a product knitter but the more time goes on the more I’ve found that the act of knitting has become incredibly important to my well being. I’m a stay-at-home parent now, and it is hands down the most difficult job I’ve ever had (and I used to literally save babies for a living as an NICU nurse). Knitting allows me to satisfy so many of own needs: for mental stimulation, quiet alone time, and creative expression, all of which are hard to come by at this stage of my life. So, process has become extremely important to me as well. That said, I can’t fully engage in a project unless the finished object is something I’m excited to gift or wear. What it will be definitely still matters. Do you have any knitting goals? Projects? Techniques? I’d love to learn brioche, dive into sweater making, and eventually learn enough of the math involved to begin tech editing. Math doesn’t come easily to me, but I love editing. I can learn, right? Do you do any other fiber arts other than knitting? Not yet, but I have grand plans to learn embroidery, weaving, sewing, and rug punching. I want to learn it all! Especially sewing, I am most excited about eventually being able to make my own clothes and stop relying on fast fashion, which isn’t in line with my values and not the example for resource stewardship that I want to set for my daughter. But because she is so little, and free time is so scarse, new hobbies have to wait a while. Do you have any other super powers other than knitting? Momming. Thats a super power right?? I never really felt that i had a “true calling” until my child was born. Mothering, while certainly not all unicorns and rainbows, is really a natural aptitude for me. I’m good at it, and I love it (most days). I used to be a pretty good writer too, back in the day, and I can pick up new languages easily. I’m also a PADI Divemaster, which means I can teach some scuba diving courses and guide other divers around sites. I’m an excellent shark spotter! If there is one to be found or spotted in the distance, I promise i’ll see it. Anything else you’d like to tell the world? (shameless self promotion!) I’m incredibly passionate about feminism (intersectional or bust), and birth and the myriad of ways the two intersect. And I’ll happily chat about either with anyone, anytime! Adventures in Mommyhood Emily- Tooth pop!! Nap schedule has been terrible! THREENAGER temper tantrums. Karla- So stoked and so bummed Inquiring minds Tell us about you!

Co-hosts Andrew James (@OneWhoSeesDimly) and Eric D. (@HopSnobbery) and joined by Mel Allen (@TheRealVoiceMel) to launch Episode 005 of Riff On, talking daughters and family. Andrew has a seven year old and ten year old daughter, Mel a four year old, nine year old and twenty-two year old and Eric D. has an almost sixteen year old, who lives in Los Angeles with her mom, a four and a half year old daughter and an almost seven year old son. Andrew, Eric D. and Mel immediately go down a rabbit hole where Eric D. brings up John Mayer, Dead and Company and Joe Russo's Almost Dead. Andrew reels it back in to talk about passing on the love of music to their daughters. Terrible twos was nothing. Threenager is really what it is happening with children nowadays, including the eyeroll and the fussiness that is feeding the kids. Passing on music to the children is something that all three hosts take pride in with their girls. Andrew's girls want to hear 'Stitches' nowadays, but they took great love to The Beatles way back in. Mel taught his oldest daughter to play guitar and some classic guitars and learned that her modern music didn't translate, so she took to older music. Trying not raise an a**hole, Eric D. asks his co-hosts if they feel like they've ever been to hard on their children. Mel recollects about his punishment of taking the door off the hinges after warning his oldest about door slamming. Andrew talks about sending this daughters's friends home early during a play date. Eric D. talks about taking away bedtime stories, despite his love of reading to the kids before bed. How do you get your children to listen? Eric D. is struggling with his kids. Andrew James has been shutting down the WiFi on his daughters to keep them from their YouTube and technology. The girls have grown up around technology, including streaming services and not watching commercials. Cord cutting has led children to not knowing what products are due to lack of traditional advertisement. Modern punishment has turned into "I'm taking away your WiFi" as a consquence. When does the need for entertaining the kids stop? When they get car keys? So, who is going to teach the kids how to drive? The mom? The dad? So, what happens when we all have self-driving cars? The kids are constantly trying to teach Eric D. patience. How do you handle patience with the kids? Mel says that if he needs to say it twice, he asks the kids to stop and look at him and tell him what he just said and if they don't, things just stop. Andrew's hardest time with patience is when his daughter's get a bit mouthy with their mom. Eric's biggest issue is having to repeat himself due to their lack of listening. Public education and daycare is discussed. Eric D. remembers his first grade teacher spanking another teach, and Mel recollects a principal in Richmond spanking. Were you spanked? Wooden spoons, the ruler and the switch were all used. Andrew James says he is transgenerational and says that every generation coming after them is not as good as their generation. The society is connected way more than it ever has been, so what is the concern over social media and the information we put out there? As a sales guy, Eric D. makes it a point of putting information out there. Do your children have a cell phone? Andrew James oldest has one and both of Mel's oldest had phones at the age of nine. Phones lead to everyone having a camera, yet we don't develop pictures anymore. So, are we going to have yearbooks in the future? Andrew James hosts The Local Haunt on Facebook. Eric D. also hosts the Let's Fix Construction podcast. www.LFCpodcast.com Please give us a follow on Twitter or Instagram at @RiffOnPodcast and a like on Facebook at www.facebook.com/RiffOnPodcast/

Show Notes: Defiant child, the boundary testing threenager Don't miss this interview with Dr Ashley Soderlund from Nurture and Thrive Blog. Ashley gives a brilliant answer to my question about a defiant child who has started playing the no-game (doing what I tell him not to) in jest, and for real. Ashley provides developmental context around this issue. I found her answer very helpful in understanding and addressing my boundary-testing threenager issues! Ashley specialises in emotional development and stress regulation. I ask the question on boundary testing 15 minutes into the interview, after learning more about Ashley, and discussing emotional regulation and self soothing. Summary The problem At 2-3 children are learning that they have their own sense of self, separate from parents. They want to practice this new-found independence skill. Simple defiance peaks at age 2 and slowly decreases until age 5 or 6, and negotiation increases. Independence and compliance are both important skills but they often competing. The solution Committed compliance (e.g. cleaning up enthusiastically when asked) requires self-regulation and a warm parent-child relationship. Committed compliance is more common at 5-6 years than 2-3 years. The no-game is a fun, warm way to practice independence. So is is a good thing as long as it can be separated from other times. Direct defiance in the no-game could be removed a step by playing it with toys. Bring in a playful game or listening helper when things (like cleaning up) have to be done. Use natural consequences "You are choosing to x, but we are running out of time for story. If you choose not to brush your teeth now, we might run out of time for story." Snatching toys: explain turn-taking (more concrete than share), encourage empathy for sibling, come up with a good natural consequence Work towards interdependence Links Listening Helper: How to get your child to listen Please subscribe, rate and share!
