Help help help!!! My 2.5 year old is going to make me explode. I don't know what to do. Everytime she asks for something and wants something she wants it now! I will tell her 1 second, please wait till mommy's done going pee, when I'm done ill get it, trying to get her attention on something else, driving and she takes her shoes off and I can't reach them etc. So she will ask and ask and ask and after 2 or 3 times asking without getting it right away she screams at the top of her lungs. She throws her body on the floor and whips it around kicking and hitting whatever's around her. I have let her scream it out and have her fit and calmly talk to her, explain, time out, ignoring etc. She will not stop screaming and throwing the fit till she gets what she wants. She works herself up so bad she throws up so I can't just let her have the tantrum. This happens like 20 times a day. With her brothers, with me or with anyone who doesn't give her what she wants. I'm about to rip my hair out!
@xryztalroze big time. She's quite advanced so I forget at times also.
@iamwhoiam124 Yes, that's my little girl. Even their ped says that she is advanced and that once she is 4 they will have her tested to see if she is gifted. My 4 yo on the other hand is a bit slow, so is scheduled for testing to see if she needs extra help or will catch up on her own.
@xryztalroze wow eh what a difference. I was testes when I was young and was advanced so it would make sense. She talks like an adult. Can count to 29. Knows all her ABC's and colours and animals etc sing every nursery rhyme. Get herself dressed. Play matching games and puzzles. Change the tv to her shows and open diff apps and games on my phone. It's nuts lol I could go on for days
I’ve posted about my defiant toddler many times before but I’m really at a loss now. She deliberately disobeys. Like, she knows what “no” means and if she’s doing something she knows she’s not supposed to I can ask “do you want to go in timeout?” And she’ll answer “no” and SOMETIMES stop.. I can’t take her anywhere cause she refuses to listen. She runs wild, screams, throws tantrums etc. At home she’s just as bad and absolutely nothing I do or say helps. Timeout doesn’t work, hand poppings don’t...
I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know
the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
FTM problems...
So I've made it pretty clear that I want to buy my daughter her fist Halloween costume. Her babysitter/nanny keeps saying she wanted to make her one. I told her yesterday that I wanted to find her something that my SO and I could dress up as a family. So I told her I am going to get it. She just text me and said 'not trying to step on your toes but I bought her two costumes'. She does this all the time. Anytime I want to do the "first" things with her she immediately does it. It...
So I'm having some late pregnancy worries... What if cant comfort her? What if I don't know why shes crying? Like say we're out and shes screaming and I just don't know what she wants!! That thought scares the shit out of me!
Keep strong and don't give in. Stick to your guns. It will take time and she will eventually get it but she has to mature and grow mama. She will learn with time. It's not easy but she is a baby and needs consistent strategy from you. Mine do the same and there are days I want to throw in the towel. My four year old is finally learning what "just a minute" means and can finally stay calm waiting for a few minutes. Hugs mama. You're not alone.
