“Toddlers test limits in order to be reassured that nothing has changed and that their world—including their parents and the rules they impose—can be relied upon. They test, we reassure, they relax, and the cycle repeats ad nauseam until that toddler finally gets shipped off to Siberia or enters kindergarten.”
