On this episode of Monday Mornings with Dr. Mona, I welcome Christina to talk about her child and their inability to drink from a straw cup. 

We discuss:

How to navigate resistance

Important phases of straw cup introduction

Reframing when your child doesn’t do what you expect them to do

Balancing patience and persistence when teaching our children new skills

In this new format of Monday Mornings with Dr Mona that began June 2022, I end each episode with three parenting principles. These principles can be used in various parenting situations, but I explain how the three principles I chose apply to a straw-cup resisting toddler.
