parenting debate with everyone taking a different approach they feel is right. no matter how you at the same time your toddler a new study sheds some light on what really works. some parents choose to love their toddler through it. others ignore the tantrum and enforce a timeout. this new study finds both approaches are actually right. researchers from oklahoma state university interviewed 102 moms who provided detailed descriptions of five times they had to discipline their toddlers for either hitting whining or defines and found in toddlers need both reasoning and punishment to improve their long term behavior. >> parents can use it as a teachable moment to show their kids how to problem solve and to teach them how to express themselves. >> experts say and parents know it can be overwhelming but go with your gut. pick your battles and tailor your responses to the severity of your toddler's behavior and then tell them all about it once they grow up and they're

lanes of the blue route from the schuylkill expressway down to 95 right now and again the whole stretch of the schuylkill about 10 miles per hour. you're not going anywhere very quickly. here we are at 95. this is at 420 -- yes 420 rather and you can see a slow go if you're making your way northbound from the delaware state line really all the way up towards the walt whitman bridge where a lot of people are exiting to make their way over to the shore right now. those southbound lanes into delaware not looking too bad. taking a look at the ben franklin bridge, you can see both directions moving along rather nicely right now. and other area bridges the tacony palmyra just closed so that is good news. we'll keep an eye on things and bring you an update in the 5 o'clock hour. back to you eva and brian. >> thank you autumn. meteorologist adam joseph with that exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast coming up next.

>> meteorologist adam joseph joining us with that all important weekend accuweather forecast. >> it's important and we're going to deliver because we'll have a lot of sun around here especially after what we dealt with at the shore today with a lot of clouds and the showers. as we take a look at the action cam which was at the shore, we can see those ominous clouds. we had a period of rain and these seagull kind of dancing and moving around in that northeasterly wind. you can see that sea grass really blowing around. wasn't the best of beach days but we'll improve it here saturday and sunday. as we look at storm tracker6 live double scan all the rain is now off the coast. even clouds beginning to clear from atlantic city to the north, still holding on strong, cape may county as well as the beaches in delaware. 82 in quakertown right now. 77 tannersville. saint davids on the verge of 80 degrees. oxford 81, levittown 85. south and east we're still in the 70's and we're in the 70's again, that is where we're still waiting for the clouds to kind of fall apart here and

that's as far west as vineland but to the north a little more sun, browns mills at 86 degrees and hockessin delaware at 84. there you can see those showers that pretty much hovered from atlantic city right down to rehoboth beach right into the early afternoon hours and there you can see that cloud line just north of dover and atlantic city, to the north of there lots of sun today, right through the lehigh valley. low pressure is off the coast. the rain is moving along with it and the low will be just to our east through much of the upcoming weekend. that will generate some waves all the way from new jersey on long beach island right down to rehoboth. mostly clear tonight seasonable, 59 in the suburbs 68 degrees for center city. there's the low to our south and east tomorrow. 87, sunny, nice with that low humidity and notice that low meanders still off the coast on sunday, high clouds filtered sunshine with a temperature of 87 and a front to the north and west will not

push in here until late monday and tuesday of next week. the poconos 77 sunny and nice. upper 70's on sunday with a mixture of sun and clouds. increased risk for rip currents over the weekend at the shore. so definitely swim where the lifeguards are on duty. some sun tomorrow, 77 but breezy and then sunday definitely brighter and nice, even though both days are pretty decent with a temperature of 80. the exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast, mostly sunny tomorrow and lots of sunshine on sunday. really a great weekend upper 80's for highs. clouds will increase late on monday maybe a scattered thunderstorm at 86 but really most of the wet weather will come in on tuesday with the front. it's a little more humid at 84. and then we dry it out midweek, right through thursday and friday turning sunny again with temperatures right around average if not a degree or two below between 84 and 85 degrees. so, as we go into the second week of august, no 90's on the board so that's a big

improvement from what we dealt with for eight straight days up until tuesday of this week. >> all right adam thank you very much. >> uh-huh. >> coming up, the most amazing freebie friday we've ever had. >> really. >> amazing. >> you're not going to disappoint are you. >> and you can actually win this, like a lot of people could. >> yup. >> alicia won't give us any details so we have to stick around.
