Crystal (@holistichomejourney) took it to TikTok and explained why it’s so important for your kids to grab what they want.

“Unless they pick up a knife,” she added, explaining that it helped prepare her kids for fewer tantrums.

“So let’s say you have a new caterpillar and it wiggles to the point of a little fuzz on the carpet – you don’t want them to eat it.

“But when they reach for it, don’t just snatch it from them — they’ve worked hard to get there,” the expert said in the video, which has since gone viral and racked up over 700,000 views on social media.

“Even though they can’t express it, if you take that without giving them the satisfaction of being able to pick it up and say, ‘I did that,’ they’ll start to feel possessive because they do it.” do not do. I don’t want them taken away.”

Instead, the holistic parenting specialist says, it’s better to have them grab it and say, “Oh, thank you,” while gently taking the item from your hand.

“As they get older, you can say, ‘Eww, yuck, help me throw that in the trash.’ […] and let them put it in there.”

Crystal then went on to explain that this inspires trust: “Just because you see they have something, you’re not going to take it.

“And it means toys and it also means sharing with older siblings.”

The effectiveness of Crystal’s approach, while viewed with skepticism by some, was proven by the experience of a distraught mother: “So my two sons, how can I undo all the times I’ve taken things from him and now he’s super possessive [sic].”
