Impulse Control in Children

Black Love Podcast Network
About this episode

Parents are you wondering when your kids are going to stop unlocking that door and wandering out the house? Unbuckling that car seat? Getting into that cabinet?  Spilling all the juice on the floor cause they think it's fun? Well, we got some bad news for you. They're probably not going to fully stop (not for a while anyway), BUT there is hope! Listen in as Charisse explains just what impulse control means to children and how we as parents can empower ourselves to  create spaces that don't allow for destructive behavior.
