Hey everyone, before we begin, I just want to remind you to please check out my new

No Bad Kids Master course.

You can find out all about it at nobadkidscourse.com.

Hi, this is Janet Lansbury, and in this episode of Unruffled, I'm going to be talking

about something completely different.

Most of my podcasts, or really all of my podcasts so far, have been about behavior issues.

And this one is going to be in response to a parent asking about propping her child up

to sit.

So I'll be talking a little about natural motor development and how to switch gears

if one wants to start doing it more that way and they happen to pin.

So here's the message I received from Mel.

Hi Janet, I'm so thankful to have found you and mocked a Gerber through you.

I have kind of a pressing question for you concerning my almost six month old.

Unfortunately we've been propping him up to sit since well a long time.

Now when I leave him on his back, it doesn't take long before he's screaming, usually already

rolled over on his belly.

By that point, I can't help but pick him up.

How do I re-teach him to learn on his own?

Did I miss the crucial time for learning to take place?

I would so appreciate your thoughts on this.

Thank you.

Well, I first want to answer right away.
