I wonder if anyone has any helpful advice for me. dd (3.2) always throws a huge tantrum when it is time to go home from anywhere, friends houses, toddler groups, nursery etc etc! and it seems to be getting worse!
I always give her a warning that we will be leaving in 5mins and tell her what we are doing afterwards usually with promise of lunch/snack (making it sound as exciting as possible!) but she still refuses to put her shoes on and leave and more often than not i end up carrying her out under one arm while she is screaming. On monday i couldnt even get her strapped in the car, my good friend had to help. I was so embarrassed as she was screaming and screaming in the street ike i was torturing her
I know its because she is having fun and doesnt want to leave but we have to go at sometime!! its really making me not want to take her anywhere as i dread hometime!!
any top tips??
thanks in advance!
