On those days when dd1 wants to be challenging. I find myself shouting :(
I try the soft, calm, fun playful. (I like to gentle/attachment parenting) but recently she seems very angry, and says she doesn't like a lots of things. (Tiredness does not help!!)
How else do you keep calm? I hate resorting to a higher tone. It makes matters worse.
I try the fun version of tidy up time, doesn't work.
It also doesn't help when g.parents let her do things we don't. Which effects her behaviour with us
I know this age is hard, as they're learning something new all the time, finding themselves.
I just want to be calm again and not hate myself chronic for having these bad mum data :( ( she says with puffy eyes)
