I bambini non fanno mai i capricci
Gli adulti, compresi i genitori, spesso chiamano "capricci" tutte quelle manifestazioni dei bambini che trasgrediscono le regole del vivere pacifico, come per esempio pianti incomprensibili, impuntature, rifiuti immotivati di mangiare, di vestirsi, di salutare, di andare a letto e altri ancora. Ma "capricci" non è la parola giusta. La verità è che ogni apparente "capriccio" è qualcosa di ben diverso, che ha un'origine in qualche modo seria. Per esempio, il pianto ha molte ragioni differenti, da un banale malessere a una paura (paura dell'abbandono, del buio, di un improvviso rumore). Né "capricci" sono le forme di aggressività, dai morsi agli spintoni, che i fratelli si scambiano per gelosia; o i nervosismi generati da eventi familiari (la malattia di un parente, la morte di un animale domestico, i dissapori fra i genitori). Questo libro aiuta a decifrare le motivazioni dei cosiddetti "capricci", permettendo ai genitori di intervenire con affettuosa sapienza ed efficacia.

Review of nct Toddler Tantrums
I loved so many aspects of this book, including considering our reactions to our children due to the parenting we received, mindfulness usage (ie hot air balloon) and addressing our communication for the benefit of our children and for us as adults. Some of the case studies I found useful, but some of the actions and thought processes didnt feel at all gentle to me. I love the idea of exploring and using humour to help address negative toddler behaviour , but I'm not on board with using displays of anger in this way as suggested by the author.
Ultimately I'd recommend as a read. If you're not for gentle parenting, you'll probably benefit from / like all of the book (I hope) and of course the book does take a more gentle and considerate approach to our toddlers than I'm sure many do, but I have to say I was a little surprised...hence my 3* rating rather than 4 or 5*. Its worth a read with some nice and informative parts....even people employing gentle parenting should benefit from most of it.
