Starting to feel at home...
Any pointers?
I have a 2.5 year old little girl who is extremely head strong. She is #3 with 2 older brothers. She's the princess and gets what she wants at home, by admission of her mom and now its a prob at home and here. I just started with her in Feb. I have my own 14m old little boy, who really wasnt at that stage yet when she started with me but hes learning quickly .
With this little girl, everything is "MINE" she takes stuff from him or anyone, she refuses to share anything (I know shes only 2.5) but if I try to get them to play together, she either tries to swipe stuff away from him, or she throws everything down and cries. If Im sitting somewhere, she wants to sit there, If anyone else is given something, she instantly drops the thing she wouldnt share in the first place cuz she wants what I've just given him to play with. If my little guy just looks at her she's yellingn "NO" at him. man... its exhausting... and my little guy honestly is a happy little man.... anyhow.
Im trying to stress the sharing, sitting them down together to play with something together, or making sure they each have a car or whatever, stressing that I"m sitting here now, or that theres lots of room next to me, or somewhere else to sit. Or that my little one had this first, she can have a turn in a bit. or No that is not your toy, its N's (my little one) and he is sharing it with you, isnt that nice of him? I had to buy a front and back double stroller, because she freaks out if he touches her in the side by side double. And its yelling "NO" and crying the whole way.... MAN OH MAN!
Anyhow, it doesnt seem to be getting any better, I know its the age, but any thing else you would try with these two?
