...wear a bib, have his nappy changed, get dressed, get undressed, get in the bath, get out of the bath, brush his teeth... the list goes on. Shrieking, screeching, writhing protests at just about everything. I'm sure it's all just a phase, but when will it end?! Ugh, it's exhausting!!

I feel your pain. Mine is 27 months, no let up here. Sorry.

It will pass.

There's no reasoning with them. Get everything done swiftly and firmly then move onto cheerily to something nicer.

It will end when he realises that the shrieking doesn't stop him having to do things. That light will dawn one day Smile

In the meantime stock up on gin and chocolate, paint on a smile and remember that anyone watching is more likely to be empathising than hoiking their judgy pants.

Good luck.
