Help me please!! My little girl is soon to be 3 (26th feb) and for some time now we've been struggling with her behaviour. She never - and I mean never - Does as she's asked without having to force her or bribe her to do it. I feel we've tried everything. Naughty step/corner was a game to her, she would quite often put herself there or if I had put her there she would constantly come out laughing after a few seconds. I tried returning her over and over for up to an hour one day but by the end she had forgotten what she had done wrong. Reward chart she didn't care a less and would just rip her stickers off, we never got past having more than 2. Sending her to her room and removing all toys she still doesn't care and will spend ages just jumping up and down on her bed. This normally finishes up with her falling off and me having to go in to her. I really don't like smacking children and don't want to take this approach but most days she has me in tears by always disobeying the simplest requests, hitting out and generally finding everything funny. I've tried remaining calm with her too but then it's as though she feels that she can carry on the naughty behaviour and mummy doesn't do anything.
I'm really struggling now and just do not know what else I can do with her. Even my mum has commented on her behaviour and she normally thinks the sun shines put of her backside and can do no wrong.
Please help me get some control back
