My nearly 3 year old has started having the most awful screaming hitting hysterical tantrums, which can go on for up to half an hour and can happen several times a day.
I am at my wits end to be honest and am beginning to wonder if she is turning into a seriously naughty child. To top it all she has started to wet herself on purpose during arguments or when she is on the naughty step.
How do you know what is normal?
sometimes we have tantrums almost all day....and I am black and blue!
We have had big changes recently 9 months ago we moved house, had a new baby and little one has moved nursery. she seemed to cope well, but could it be a delayed reaction?
My instinct is to tighten up discipline but is this just because I was raised by strict parents? Not smacking but on the verge due to my frustration, which I know is all wrong. anyone help?
