:eek:Hi guys,
I need your advice once more. It seems lately like I am constantly butting heads with my 3 year old girl. If it's not a fight for something as simple as having more or less milk with in her cup or about the colour of the lids it's about some other issue about ofcourse getting what she wants, when she wants and then when the answer is no ... HELLOOOOOOOOOOO Tantrum !! I know it's 'normal" behaviour but I tought that was the terrible two phase ? She turned 3 in april and altought she did not have much tantrums when she was 2. Are these frequent little fights normal at her age? She does communicate well now but she is also not potty trained. Could this be just that she is still just a bit immature in that regards ? She was born prematurely but never really seemed to affected by it. She was always borderline on her development. Anyways when she does start a fight she does get a time out in her room as the screaming is just unbearable, she gets faire warning to correct herself when I see she is about to explode but wow sometimes I could really lose it myself. She goes to her room and will scream for 30 minutes!!! I do beleive I have been consitant but I need a new strategy. It has been going on for 2 months now I would say and I see no improvement. Otherwise, she is fine, no violent behavior, plays well with others...I need the outsider opinion or simply to be reassured that I'm not alone
Thanks guys !
