and I'm at my wits end with it...
Both me and DH have tried to get her to stop it but without much success. DD has 2 older brothers and she loves wrestling with them and playing with them - hence she's pretty tough. She is also a very physical child and is quite heavy handed and doesn't seem to understand how to be gentle.
I have just been to a friends for lunch today and it is quite obvious that DD is very different from my other friends Dc's who are a similar age. They don;t have older siblings and were much calmer and more gentle. DD played okay to start with but then she lashes out if she wants a toy and is just a bit of a handful. she was also a bit rough with my friends 7 month old ...
I feel a bit low about it all and would like to get her behaviour better. Has anyone been in a similar situation, any advice...?
TIA
