Hi all,
My dd is nearly 18 months and I am genuinely struggling with the idea of discipline. She is starting to show some more rebellious behaviour (I don't want to say naughty!) and I don't want to let it slide and have a nightmare on my hands in a year or two's time! I also don't know what is expected of a child at this age. An example would be throwing books on the floor and ignoring me when I ask her to pick them up- I know she knows what I mean as she will sometimes do it. Today she threw the books on the floor, I eventually managed to get her to 'help' me to pick them up- she then threw them on the floor again! Any tips for this? Or am I expecting too much? Am I imagining the mischievous streak that I am seeing?
TIA
