Behavior & Development

My daughter has started stealing things. She goes to friends’ houses and comes home with tiny toys in her pockets or I’ve caught her taking money out of my husband’s wallet. What can we do about this? I’d be mortified if she was ever caught stealing something!

I’m a little embarrassed to say it, but my son has learned curse words from my road rage. How do I teach him that they’re bad and not okay to say?

Hey everyone! I am in desperate need of help for some quick 3 day potty training tips. I have seen so many articles on it and I think my son can do it but I just want to hear from personal experiences on whether it really works or not and how you did it! Articles can sometimes be very deceiving and I don't want to take their advice and then my son is traumatized to pee in the toilet!

I think my baby's tooth is coming in, she keeps on crying and I know it's not because she's hungry or hurt! How do I know for sure if that's the case though? My big fear is that it's something hurting internally that I cannot see.

My child has been having a hard time sleeping in one position and is always rolling over! He's only 3 so I get it, but I wonder if placing a railing on the bed would hurt him? I currently let him roll onto another mattress that we have laying on the ground, but I also want to let his body learn that rolling will hurt if nothing is there. Is this wrong?

My husband wants to begin using a baby sling for our 4 month old and I don't know if it's too early or if that's the best route to take. I'm scared it may be bad for my baby's posture. Opinions?

How strict should my husband and I be about bedtime for our 5-year-old? He never stays up too late, of course, but we have trouble getting him to bed at a consistent time each night - partly because of my husband’s unpredictable work schedule. Our LO wants to wait up for him. Does this matter?

Our girl is past the 2 1/2 year mark and is just not down to potty train. I can tell she is ready in some ways (wants her diapers changed asap) but we’re having a hard time transitioning. Don’t wanna force it before she’s ready, but worried I’m screwing her up if she wears diapers for too long.

My husband and I have been trying to potty train my son but we have been struggling with him wanting to sit on the toilet. We currently use a training potty for him but he resists so much! I'd love to get feedback on what other people use. Any tips for potty training? Should we get a toddler seat?
