If you are here in the Philippines I bet you are familiar with Yaya and Angelina. Yaya is the nanny of the little brat girl Angelina with a popular tag line “You’re such a loser yaya!”. Angelina depicts a child who is on her terrible twos who knows how to manipulate her caregiver into doing anything she wishes.
As a parent I don’t want my daughter to be as spoiled as and I don’t want a pushover caregiver like that. I want a nanny with good parenting skills. Someone who has the tender loving of an angel but stern at enforcing house rules without having to be physically and psychologically abusive.
I wonder how Yaya did the potty training with Angelina, since she is such a spoiled brat. I think this task is the most difficult task to teach a child since we can only assume when is the right time to send them to the toilet, especially if you have a child like mine who has difficulty in communicating her wants and needs.
However, if you have an average child the best resource that you can find the techniques on potty training and other parenting advice and tips can be found at a parenting forum where real parents shares their real experiences. Aside from potty training parents share their experiences about handling tantrums, good eating habits, and alternatives to the word no to end parent-child struggle or yaya-child struggle and never again have an Angelina say their yaya is such a loser.
