Title says it all really. DD is 2.11 and just being very trying at the moment.
I say no to something, she'll make sure I am watching and then do it again with greater enthusiasm. I ask her to do a simple task (put shoes on to go out) and then repeat about 20 times before it gets done (if I am lucky) or I do it (if we are in a rush). I could go on. She barters on everything - "I'll eat 3 bites of dinner and then I'm done" and this is before I've even started cooking it!
I guess it is just about testing boundaries - but it is driving me mad. Is this normal? Any advice?
