About this title: Any parent who has tried to keep up with an active toddler for a whole day knows that a child of this age is a whirlwind of contradictory, explosive and ever-changing emotions. In this book, child psychologist Alicia Lieberman addresses common emotional issues and questions facing parents with children this age. Why, for example, is "no" often the favourite response of the toddler? How should parents deal with the anger they sometimes feel in the face of their toddler's unflagging obstinacy? Why does a crying toddler run to its mother for a hug, only to push himself away as soon as she begins ...

"I found this to be a helpful glimpse into why toddlers are the way they are (at least, sometimes). It was reassuring to note that problematic behaviors (like tantrums) are both normal and necessary and not always a result of bad parenting.
Also - I found the connection between toddlerhood and adolescence to be interesting. Both ages deal with the struggle between individuation and connection."
"I found this useful as my son was nearing 2 and shortly thereafter. Easy to pick up and refresh your memory if your toddler seems to be going through a challenging time. Helped me understand some of the main personality types in kids and how to parent in a way that respects their personality, along with taking into account my own."
"The Emotional Life of the Toddler was published in 1993 and it suffers from the lack of some of the latest attachment research and access to more recently published parenting resources. Lieberman's chapters on "The Challenges of Being (and Raising) a Toddler" and "The Toddler in Childcare" are very good. The chapter about divorce and how to help a child negotiate all of the changes and tensions inherent in the break-up of a family offers a big picture understanding as well as specific advice. Her chapters on temperament, active, and shy toddlers, are covered much more specifically in The Highly Sensitive Child by Elaine Aron and Raising Your Spirited Child by Mary Sheedy Kurcinka, but Lieberman provides an overview for parents looking to understand their child's temperament. I'd recommend this book to folks looking to understand more about their toddlers, but if you're looking for advice about how to parent a toddler, there are much better books out there."
"Another parenting book that gave me not much new besides an added feeling of utter inadequacy. I guess if you have a really hard time empathizing with your toddler this book would help. My problem isn't that I can't empathize with her, so this book only rubbed in for me the fact that both she and I are miserable during these "phases." Wheee! Thanks, expert!"
