22: Shaping Toddler Behavior: Word Choice

Allison & Brian recap their week in toddler-land (their toddler is 17 months old), including starting a new parent-tot music class, monkey noises, and several embarrassing moments at the library. In the Parenting News segment, Allison & Brian rehash Chapter 6 ("Saying the Right Things") of the book "Raising Good Humans" and overthink every word choice they use when attempting to direct their toddler's behavior.  Listeners with toddlers- please tell us- what techniques to use to shape your toddler's behavior and encourage them to clean up, wash their hands, brush their teeth, etc...?! We'd love to hear from you in the comments @ProbablyOKParenting on Instagram!
