A parent writes that she's struggling with her nearly 2.5-year old's hitting. Her toddler also talks a lot about pushing and hitting her friends "almost as if it's a joke."

Janet advises a reframe that's simpler than most parents might expect and applies to many other concerning childhood behaviors as well.
