Hi
DS soon to be 3. I realised he is starting to experience fear. He loves cuddling up and reading wolf stories (little red riding hood/three little pigs etc.....
He is also turning into a nasty little person (we did not experience terrible 2s, so I guess this is it.
I've started telling him that unless he behaves/accepts to go to bed/etc... I will call the wolf. This usually works a treat but my husband says I might cause some sort of trauma...........am I really being a bad mother?? do you resort to this sort of threats??? I honestly think it's quite benign, it does not send him into any sort of panick but does stop him right there on his tracks.
suggestions very welcome
