Episode (REPLAY) Why Toddlers Misbehave: Your Toddler Isn’t Bad — Their Brain Is Developing
Being a toddler is tough—and parenting one can feel just as hard.
In this episode, Dr. Cathryn breaks down why toddlers struggle with impulse control, what’s really behind their behavior, and how to respond in ways that actually work.
You’ll learn how to guide—not punish—using simple, developmentally-smart strategies that reduce chaos and build cooperation.
What You’ll Learn:
• Why toddler impulsivity is normal (not “bad behavior”) • How to prevent challenges before they start • Why supervision beats discipline every time • Simple ways to handle transitions and big emotions • How noticing the good changes behavior fast
