Mom was stressed because her 2 ½ year old wouldn't
let him change his diaper without a fight. It had come down to her holding
him down and getting physical with him to change him and she was concerned
that she would hurt him. I advised her to give him choices, like, "Do
you want to get changed on mama's bed, or on the floor in the living
room?", or "Would you like to get changed in your room or on
the grass in the backyard?" She looked at me skeptically but agreed
to try it. The next day she came when I saw her she said, "It worked!
He laughed and let me change him with no problem each time!" Way
to go mom!
- Cynthia, mom of two.
