i have a beautiful 20 month baby girlwho has a terrible temper.from the time she gets up till she goes to bed im constantly chasing after her.she doesnt sit still.everything she does is dangerous such as climbing on anything,throwing things around.im constantly saying no,which understandably then makes her angry and she pulls her hair or bites herself,i tell her no,thats naughty and she goes back to doing the dangerous stuff.im worn out.i dont believe in smacking.i remove her from the situation,try to distract her but nothing works.she rules the house and i think she knows it,she also wont go asleep in her cot,i have to take her in my bed,then when shes asleep put her in her cot.i have tried and it can take 2 hours or more and im so shattered by then.god you can tell shes my first please advise,i just dont know what else to do and i cant leave her cry,that upsets me.
