Hey everybody, welcome to WireTalk.

Well, today we're going to talk about little kids and big emotions.

If you got a child right now that is crying, having tantrums, just throwing fits all over the place,

and you don't know how to handle it, then today is for you.

So we're going to be looking at our preschoolers and also early elementary.

So let's get going.

Hey moms and welcome to Wiretalk. If you're a parent of little ones and they've got big

emotions and you're like, what am I doing? I am in the thick of it. This episode is just for you.

That's exactly right. I mean, you know, I think during this stage of parenting, it's just exhausting. It is. You know, I mean, and it doesn't matter what temperament your child is. They all go through it at some point or another. I always sort of chuckle to myself when moms are like, they have a, you know, two-year-old, and they're like, they've just never hit the terrible twos. And I'm like, well, get ready because threes are going to be horrible. I mean, everybody hits it one time or another. Yes, I do think sometimes Harpers' threes were worse than her twos, but Grayson's twos were worse than his threes. Right. I think it's either, thankfully, it's either one of the two. Yeah. You just never know what you're going to get. You never know. You never know. You never know. But I think it's encouraging to me to read these questions to be like, okay, I'm not the only mom. Exactly. That is having these hard moments because you do feel, I feel like that's where Satan wants you.

He wants you to be like, you're the only one with the kid that's driving you crazy.

Well, not only that, I think Satan, I do think that's part of his scheme and also starts dropping these little lies in these sweet mama's brains.

You're a bad mom.

Yes.

You're doing something wrong. When moms aren't doing anything wrong, this is just a child's sin nature. I mean, a lot of the times it's just coming out. They're not getting what they want and they're pitching a fit, you know? So, but we, we as moms, we just totally blame ourselves all the time.

It's so easy to, too.

And guys, I'm going to be honest, I'm the first one to say that, like, with Ellie, you know, she's six months old now when this episode is airing.

And sometimes I'm like, am I doing a good job?

Is she, am I, what am I doing wrong?

Why is this hard?

Well, obviously, she's not

pitching fits, but Emily's talking about she's not sleeping through the night. Or she's crying. And I'm like, why are you crying? What am I doing wrong? I literally texted you yesterday at 4.30 in morning and said, I always had a little genie on my shoulder that said, what do I do? Poof, this is what you need to do. I'm like, please, that's what I want.

I know. But that's okay. I think you're doing
