DD is now 3 1/2 and she is still going through the terrible twos. When shes good shes an angel but when shes going off on one shes a nightmare. Normally shes not too bad, but this past week she's been an absolute horror.
Thinking about it it started just after I had to stay late @ work & I am wondering if its made her insecure but OH reckons shes just being naughty.
Past week @ bedtime she wants more cuddles, so instead of the usual story, cuddles piggy on, wait for daddy, cuddles piggy on then sleep, we know have her shouting while I settle DS wanting more cuddles, then piggy on. Well tonight I said she couldn't have her pig on, a second time until daddy came down, and she then started shouting she wanted daddy to read a story. Told her if she got into bed and was quiet then that was OK. She procedded to have full on paddy on sons bedroom floor, then followed me downstairs having a paddy, then followed me upstairs still having a paddy, eventually 1 hour later we got her to bed.
Lunchtime she refused to eat her dinner, but when gave it to her bro to eat she went ballsitic. She ehnde up in bed. Took 1 hr for her to stop having a paddy then she went to sleep.
Monday iI couldn't pick her up from pre-school as I was trynig to sort DH insurance out, & normally its not a problem but this week again she was naughty. OH lifted her into car, and she started yelling she wanted to do it, so DH took her out of car, then she said she wanted him to put her in. Eventually got her into car, put then refused to have seat belt on. Normally home by 12 after school. By 1 o'clock Iwas worried and was just about to go look for them when OH arrived.
I'm really at my wits end with her & I'm @ work normally!
After tonights fiasco she won't be getting a story or her pig on for several nights, which will be hell, but not sure what else to do. When she is good again, she'll get story & pig.
Sorry this is long, the list could go on, after advice, any ideas what to do?
Thanks.
