1. THEY INTERRUPT YOU CONSTANTLY Not because they’re rude — because they’re unsure when they’ll get you again. 2. THEY MELT DOWN THE MOMENT YOU REUNITE They held it together all day. You are their safe place to fall apart. 3. THEY INSIST ONLY YOU DO THINGS Bath, food, bedtime — this is about attachment, not control. 4. THEY GET IRRITATED OVER TINY THINGS Their emotional cup is empty. Small triggers feel big when connection is low. 5. THEY FOLLOW YOU EVERYWHERE They’re checking. “Are you still here? Do I still matter?” 6. THEY GET LOUD OR SILLY BEFORE BEDTIME They sense separation coming — and are trying to pull closeness before sleep. Your child doesn’t always say “I miss you.” Sometimes, they show it in ways that feel exhausting. Before correcting behaviour, check the connection 💛 Most kids don’t need more rules — they need more you. #gentleparenting #parentingtips #raisingtoddlers #toddlerbehaviour #parentingtoddlers
