Lastly, Lisa addresses five listener questions, discussing how to approach little cuts and scrapes with a 3-year-old, the best way to handle 4-year-old outbursts when things don’t go their way, what resources are available to help parents develop Calm Leadership, how to effectively give choices to a 3-year-old, and how to respond when a 20-month-old tantrums because their parent won’t read a book.
