DD1 is 4.2, very bright, very independent and frankly thinks that she is in charge of the place. As they say "she needs school!"
i have been away for the weekend and dh found her hard to deal with... i think he treats her as an adult too much, gives her concessions but then expects her to give in in other areas and it doesn't seem to work like that!
anyway, he said last night that with DD2 (2.5) he feels he knows how to handle her, knows what he's doing but is at a bit of a loss with DD1 and asked me to get him a book. We both read supernanny and found it great for basic advice on behaviour (consistency, time with them, etc...) when they were younger.
so, wise mumsnetters, any good books you would recommend for 4-5 year olds?!
