    Hey sarah ! Could you make a video about how you dicipline yourself and stay productive ? I’m very interested in what fuels your dicipline. I’ts something that a lot of people (including me) struggle with so i would love to learn something from you.!

  • @lexititus2323

    Sarah, I have to disagree with you on one point lol. Kids don’t tantrum solely because they want attention, as you said in the video. Kids actually do tantrum from frustration of not being able to communicate and from frustration of emotions they don’t understand yet. They tantrum because of many reasons not just one, and you have to understand your kids tantrum and their warning signs as a parent! I can tell the difference between my daughter getting overwhelmed because I’m not understanding what she’s saying, and her just being tired and grumpy, and both require different parenting techniques to get through them in a positive way. I don’t think every tantrum deserve separation, but you are right in one aspect, they do all deserve calmness and gentleness

    • @vickyjvr
      @vickyjvr 5 лет назад +8

      All the things you mention can be solved by giving your kiddos attention. Im saying that i agree with sarah that a full blown tantrum is due to a lack of attention. A child going through emotions they dont understand never ends up in a tantrum when you as a parent is present enough to notice them experiencing it and consoling them as needed. The same with not being able to communicate. My toddler tries several times to communicate and only resourts to tantrum when i am not actively trying to figure out what he is saying. This is toddler and kiddo talk. Not baby talk. Baby's cry for a number of reasons. I feel like that doesnt really count as a tantrum though. Children are amazing. They have such an amazing capasity to understand things. I think a lot of times people make the mistake of thinking their toddler wont understand so they dont even try. GOD made kids so incredibly complex and we should really use that time of heightened awareness (the time before they turn 6) to establish good habits, emotional control, and obviously a good sense of home.

      @lexititus2323 5 лет назад +6

      Vicky JvR I know all the things I mention can be solved with giving attention, that’s the whole point I was making. A full blown tantrum, like you and Sarah both say, does not deserve attention. But other times, when they’re getting overwhelmed they do deserve attention to the problem. That’s what I was saying. I was just pointing out something that Sarah said in the video that wasn’t completely correct, only partly correct. I always actively listen to my child, I know children are amazing, and I also give my daughter a wonderful home life. That doesn’t mean that she still doesn’t tantrum for various reasons from time to time

    • @lexititus2323
      @lexititus2323 5 лет назад +3

      Vicky JvR also, sometimes a child going through emotions might not end up in a massive tantrum, but they do cry and get angry. It’s not always positive emotions they experience. When I referred to the warning signs, that’s what I was also talking about. My daughter will tend to get frustrated, and I have to talk her back down. It’s normal. But I always do it before it becomes a full blown temper tantrum of frustration.

      Yes i definitely remember throwing several tantrums at age 4/5 because I felt neglected and no one listened to me. I guess i still remember being that young since i'm only 20. I dont how other people forget tbh.

    Hi Sarah! Can you please make a video on how you and your husband were able to marry at 19? Did he already have a stable job? How did you come to make that decision? Were your parents on board? Were you going to school? Did you choose motherhood over college?
    I’m asking because I’m in a relationship and I want to be married and a mom more than anything over any career. I’m having a hard time prioritizing my dreams. A video about this would be so helpful!

      I got married at 19 and my dream is to be pregnant soon (unfortunately that's proving to be difficult). My husband had a steady job, although it was just barely enough to pay the bills and literally nothing else. I was in school full time and worked part time here and there. I struggled a lot at first with feeling comfortable in my identity as a wife and wanting kids young, but over the last 2 years I've learned to just let that go. I'd say if that's you're deam then go for it! Its definitely not always easy, but I'm so glad I got married young because I get to grow up with my best friend!

    • @lacey.alexandria
      @lacey.alexandria 5 лет назад +8

      You sound EXACTLY how I was at that age! My husband and I got married at 19. We are high school sweet hearts and just felt that it was time. Our parents were 100% on board. We were in college at the time and had scholarships that paid for our living expenses so neither of us had a job but my husband got one shortly after we were married because I became pregnant on our honeymoon. Like you, I was SOOOO ready to be a mama. Like, I wanted to be a mom NOW. But let me tell you, college is so much more complicated once you have kiddos. I wouldn't trade my kids for the world, but if I had to do it over, I'd probably wait until I'm almost done with school to get pregnant. I still managed to finish school, but it did really suck. I had my first kid during my second year of college and my second kid during my fourth year of college. I had him two months early so I had to take that semester off. And now I'm a stay at home mom and don't even use my degree 😅 But it's there for when I do need it later down the road and I'm glad that I got it. My advice, going off of what I've done myself would be to get married if you're 100% sure that's what you want but wait until you're in your last semester to have a kiddo. That's what I would do if I had a do-over. And this is all in the assumption that you even want to go to college. Not everyone does 😊 Being a mom is the best thing I've ever done so I 100% sympathize with wanting to go that route ♡

    Love you so much, Sarah. You are amazing! I do disagree, however, with some points you made in regards to the reasons children tantrum. It is often perceived that children do this for attention. I am a teacher and have completed postgraduate honours study. For my PhD, I have been researching a lot about children's brain development and its link with behaviour. Tantrums are an expression of extreme emotional distress. This means that your child now is not using their cortex (higher order thinking such as logic, reasoning, peace, etc), but they are instead operating in the limbic system (the emotional brain). When you operate primarily in the limbic system, your IQ drops, your ability to reason and understand others drops, and much more. This is the reason why heated arguments often seem to achieve nothing as opposed to calm and loving discussions. This is also why trying to discipline or explain something to a tantruming child often fails. Like you said, they need to calm down first. If being alone in their room helps them to achieve this, that is great. For other children, it might be a cuddle that calms them down. The point is that any form of conversation or discipline should be introduced once the child is able to operate in their cortex (once they have calmed down). It should always be the goal as a parent to keep your child calm and happy wherever possible in order to promote healthy brain development and, thus, better life outcomes as an adult. God bless

    • @faithburrill4117
      @faithburrill4117 5 лет назад +5

      I respect your education in this subject but I think experience and history are important as well. Do you have a lot of experience trying to cuddle toddlers while their throwing tantrums? I think if you could cuddle them or have a loving or calm conversation during a tantrum it wouldn't qualify as one. Also, the reward system is learned very early. People will always have good reasons and real needs that compel them to throw tantrums. If you reward them in early stages for it, it creates patterns in the brain, actual brain changes that I don't believe can be easily reversed at a later point in brain development. I have watched parents try to reverse this. We, by nature, seem to adhere more closely to our early habits than our developed reason. So, of course kids have real emotional needs and problems but I don't think it will hurt to help them grow good habits through a basic reward-non-reward system that will serve them well later, when they are able to fully understand and still FEEL like throwing a tantrum. It's not ignoring their problems... you can say... "We can talk about this later when you settle down". But it is teaching them self control and appropriate timing, something that will serve them so well later in life. As an emotional person who tends to obsess over psychology, the older I get the more I appreciate my parents early training in this way. My ability... a habit formed in the toddler years ... to stay in control emotionally even when i feel out of control inside, has been key to getting through very difficult circumstances succesfully in life. Not saying emotions shouldn't be expressed of course, but there is a way, a place and time. And I think giving your kids a kind, understanding and loving head start of habit in this area can be helpful... it sure was for me and my siblings 😚.

    • @jeanamay
      @jeanamay 5 лет назад +7

      Hi Faith, thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience. To answer your question, I am a mother of 3, with a set of twins. I also helped raise my nephew. So, yes, I have had a lot of experience with toddler tantrums. :D It is a common misconception that if you 'reward' 'bad' behaviour, then this will pull through into later life in a negative sense. Children tantruming is not 'bad' behaviour. Likewise, cuddling your child during a tantrum is not going to teach your child that if they tantrum they will get what they want. Children are not as manipulative as we adults like to make out. The patterns in the brain that you are referring to is known as the process of 'synaptic pruning'. A 2 year old has more connections in their brain than they will have at any point in their life. After this age, the brain begins to delete any unused pathways.
      I think this article sums it up better than I can:
      "Synapse strength is vital in developing emotional regulation abilities. This is why it’s critical that we provide our children with experiences that contribute to healthy brain development. For example, a child who experiences excessive stress will develop a larger brainstem - the part of the brain responsible for the fight, flight, freeze response. These children are more likely to become adults who are overly reactive to stress. Why? Because their early experiences suggest that they need to be on high alert. That their environment is unsafe (and so are they)."
      The brain works on a stress vs reward system. The level of distress shown by the child indicates the level of reward that must be offered in order to counteract the stress. By reward, I don't mean sticker charts and lollipops. Anything that releases endorphins in the brain is a reward. This can be a cuddle, alone time, a fun distraction, etc. Different strategies will work with different children. As long as the response given to the tantrum matches the intensity of the tantrum. For example, when my daughter throws a tantrum, something as simple as a loud gasp and me running to the window saying I just saw a beautiful butterfly can be enough to surprise her out of hysterics. If her tantrum is not too bad, then I might be able to offer her a silent cuddle while she calms herself down. Brain development researchers are pushing for parenting to be 'responsive' above all else. That is how the human brain works. We are built for relationship. So if your child is showing you their need in the form of a tantrum, the best thing you can do is respond to that need, in a way that works for you and your child.

    I really recommend that mummas read the book Raising a Secure Child by Kent Hoffman. I don't agree with leaving children to deal with their feelings on their own. They just don't have the capacity to do that. What happens is it teaches them to bury their feelings instead of dealing with them. Tantrums are the only way a child can demonstrate their distress. Leaving them on their own when they have lost control can be very scary for them. They need you to hold space for them and allow them to let it all out. I agree you need to be gentle with them and treat them with compassion. You are the calm in their storm.
    I found it really useful to sit with my 18 month old son and hold his hand or touch his shoulder. Physical touch is very powerful. If he is angry, I will give him a soft ball he can throw. Physical activity can help them release that nasty cortisol that floods their system when they are stressed or anxious. If he is physically thrashing about and likely to hurt himself, I will hold him firmly and rock him and sing to him until he relaxes. It takes a lot of work and patience but it really works for us. He is a really happy baby 90% of the time and if he does throw a tantrum is usually for a reason. Not just for attention.

    @Emma-xd7nw 5 лет назад +13

    I think feeling like a failure doesn't usually mean you're not trying hard enough but rather that the world's expectations on motherhood are so harsh. You're expected to have a successful career, beautiful, spotless home, perfectly behaving kids with a dosen hobbies.. the list is endless! I've been a mom only for two months but I've seen many mothers struggling with this. I also feel like a failure many days when I feel I should have done a lot more with the baby. Still I must say I could not have done any more than this since she's in my arms most part of the day. Let's be kind to ourself mamas!

    Sarah I love you so much I think you are really wonderful.
    When my son has a tantrum I stay close to his body. I reassure him that whatever emotions he is feeling are ok and that I am here for him when he needs me.
    Sometimes he let's me hold him through the tantrum sometimes he just wants me close.
    It takes a lot of patience and he glanced up to see my reaction from time to time.
    I feel like he is checking to see that no matter how he acts I still am that calm cool solid safe space for him.
    I also feel that the more choice you give your child the more he feels empowered and in control of his life. Even though the two choices you provided are choices you made.
    "Would you like to put your right of left sock on first?"
    Either way with our experiences a tantrum is usually led on because his emotional bank account has not been filled.
    And its age appropriate and happens to every child here and there.♡♡♡

    • @katehb6038
      @katehb6038 5 лет назад +2

      Well said, being close to a child while they are feeling beg feelings provides a safe strong place for them to confidently share their emotions. I follow Janet Lansbury as she shares some great supportive advice on children's emotions and ours. I know it's hard to keep cool when our children are testing us, but perhaps consider, closing a child in their room, alone, with big feelings might not always be helpful, to the child as tantrums are not always about attention, they can be about trying to express feelings of something thats really affected them and need to know you are a safe place to share with and get comfort and understanding from . You didn't say what you did after they had calmed down, I hope it's talking through what emotions were being felt :) A child wants to feel heard and understood, this allows them to release feelings, that are often deeper than we realise, and move on. Thank you for openly sharing your parenting journey!

      All the oxytocin in your system will make you so fulfilled and content that exhaustion will not manifest like you think it will.
      The female body has mechanisms to facilitate and help motherhood and energy levels for child rearing. Mom-exhaustion is different from regular exhaustion.

    I give you a lot of credit. I've got 5 kids (between the ages of 15-5). I feel like a failure all the time because I can't keep up at the moment. One of my kiddos is special needs (lots of doctors appointments, therapy sessions, etc). So I'm constantly on the go. A lot of the time I feel like a single parent because my husband travels for weeks at a time for work. But at the end of every single day I know it is all worth it. My kids are my entire world.

      @@jmr2729 some days I feel like I miss having one child but I look at each of my kids and can't imagine life without them.
      I think my hardest transition was from 3 to 4 kids. Mostly because there was a 3 year gap between #3 and #4. My kids are pretty much 2 to 3 years apart from each other. But I was a single mom of 3 kiddos for almost 2 years before I met my current husband. So I had only been married for about a year when my 4th child was born. I had been so used to doing things for 3 kids by myself that I didn't transition into a wife and a mom of 4 easily. It gets easier as they get older. Now, I can handle it but I feel exhausted at the end of the day.
      Good luck and I hope you are able to find your grind in order to have another little one if that is what is on your heart! They sure are a blessing.

Doing the same thing at the same time makes kids secure. I like how you are teaching your kids small chores and that you let them entertain themselves. Keeping your house simple and cleaning as you go helps. I can see how I did too much for my kids and would not do that again.

    I love that you said that you’re busy but you love it because it’s YOUR busy. I feel like in this day and age a lot of people won’t think they’re doing good enough if they aren’t busy. I have an 18 month old and we are busy in our own way but our days are still jam-packed. I spend most of my sons waking hours, taking him to places where he can socialize or allowing him to play here at home. We are busy, but life is also slow and not stressful at all. We are finally in our own little rhythm and I think toddlers really strive on that consistency where they know what’s happening during what time of day and that his mama isn’t stressed out. I love this “busy” time of life.

    Loved this video and Mom Talk in general. One addition I have is to try to spend a little one-on-one with each child each day. It may not be necessary when they’re little, but as they get older, having mama’s full attention for 10-15 minutes each day can really help. They feel special and you feel like an even better mom.

    Thank you so much for answering these questions. My husband and I don’t currently have children, but we are trying to conceive. I’m a nanny and these were so helpful to me for my job. And especially for when I have kids of my own.

    Hi Sarah, I'm so excited for your homeschooling videos. We've been homeschooling for two years now and we love it. Enjoyed this mom talk. If you haven't heard Slugs and Bugs, you and your kiddos would enjoy it! They sing the bible and the songs are soooo good. Helps in scripture memory. Much love, Jennifer

    I needed this. I’ve been feeling like a failure a lot lately. I am pregnant with my third daughter so I’m sure it’s hormones as well, but the stress is real. I’d love more tips on how to calmly parent! You seem to have such a good grip on it! I tend to get a little t-Rex like when my kids stress me out! I need to find some techniques/go-to’s that help me in those moments!

    I love your gentle nature. My parents both have explosive anger and that’s something that I had to work on when I started dating my husband. I’m much better than I was but I’m always trying to make improvements. Now that I’m a mom I strive to be gentle in my anger and it’s something I know I’m going to have to work on daily especially as my baby gets older.

    I really enjoy watching you as you are a very mature and sensible Mama. As a stay at home Mama of 27 years with regular kids and special needs kids my best advice would be do not dismiss older Mamas who have been there, done that. Often young Mothers think older Mothers are completely redundant. We are an often untapped source, we know what happens at the 'other end' of parenting. Thank you for your videos.

  • @tiliciasmith
    @tiliciasmith 5 лет назад

    I use Moringa powder to boost my milk supply when needed. I actually don’t use/take anything other than Moringa for milk supply, it’s that good! I make them into my own capsules (it doesn’t have a good taste mixed in a beverage) it works amazing and has tons of vitamins and minerals. I know some people use it as a “multivitamin” even when not lactating. I hope you try it and love it as much as I do!
