A concerned mother writes that her 3-year-old seems to be in a constant state of frustration or anxiety, making outlandish demands and crying when she doesn’t get her way.

She’s looking for healthy ways to help them both cope. For more advice on common infant/toddler parenting issues, please check out Janet's books at Amazon and Audible (https://adbl.co/2OBVztZ).
