Tantrums & Other Challenging Behaviors - Helping Your Child Find Another Way

Tantrums, hitting, shouting, pinching, etc. are really our children’s attempts to communicate as best they can in a hectic and often unresponsive world. The good news is that Raun and Kristin are here to show you some simple, doable strategies to enable your child to find sweet and useful ways to communicate and get their needs met. Your hosts also argue about whether men or women are better kissers, invent some surprising variations on contact lenses, and celebrate our kids. Kristin hands you some can’t-miss ideas for your life, and Raun makes a plea to “stop calling our children tragic.”
