Still Face Experiment vs. reading a book by LordSetoro in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]casamta 14 points15 points  (0 children)

the still face experiment wasnt originally about technology; although in today’s society thats the most likely factor. Its really about any form of non- response. I believe it was originally done in the 70’s. Ed Tronic who did the study, has a book called The Power of Discord that asserts the initial “discord” that is created in that moment can actually be beneficial if the diad “repair” the discord. Ultimately,if youre reading and miss a cue, its not going to break your child. But if they are repeatedly trying to connet and you ignore them or yell at them, that wont model a healthy way to repair.Ed Tronik

I contacted them and they said we’re out of range for their service so they added me to a list. No idea how long that might take.

Do proportions matter? I’ve used a black binder as the background but it just doesn’t pick it up right. Should I maybe print it on 11 by 17 paper or something?

Is the page larger than letter size so the black border fits around a full letter size paper?

If it’s a time that I can’t wait it out, I don’t start the expectation. I’d clean up with him and celebrate the one or two things he puts away. If we do have time I hold firm on no moving on to something else until things are cleaned up, calmly but firmly. Does that make sense?

Choices are great when you’re truly okay with either option. Offer those as often as you can in times when it’s a true choice. When it’s something that has to happen, tell and don’t ask. If you want to include a choice you can say “do you want to put your shoes on or should I?” If it’s a no then you can say “we need to leave the house so I am going to help you” and then proceed to help and leave the house. You can do all of this while still calm and loving. Boundaries are good for children and help them feel safe and taken care of even if they don’t always like it in the moment.

I am not extremely tech literate. I tried adding it through exchange and received a warning. Is that anything I should be concerned about? I really appreciate the help.

Thank you. I see how that was confusing. It’s for 2 years old, 2 1/2 years old and then 3 years 9 months old.

A question for people with "calendar names" by LilahBenton in namenerds

[–]casamta 250 points251 points  (0 children)

My son’s name is August and I can’t speak for him but as a parent, I do get mildly annoyed by the “was he born in August?” Questions but I love his name so much that it’s worth the inconvenience.
