How do people discipline their under 2's? DC is the usual toddler, 20 months, walking/running everywhere, starting to talk and in my eyes not naughty but very inquisitive and knows how to try and push boundries.
Partner and I have different views on how to tell DC off at this age. Tonight DC was playing with me on the floor, when DC got over excited and started pulling my hair quite harshly. I managed to untangle DC's hand fron my hair, sternly said no, was at their level and said you hurt mummy, you Don't do that, gave DC a second to calm down and then asked for a cuddle to say sorry.
Because I didn't shout at DC and in hubby's words make them feel like they had done the worst thing in the world he's now spent the evening shouting at me telling me how I parent wrong!
I actually Don't know who is right (of if there even is a right way!) So any advice would be great
