I'm a third time mum to a lovely 2 and a half year old girl. Shes a delight 90% of the time, very clever can say some but not a lot of words, understands well, But sometimes she can be really hard work, she keeps climbing on the window sill (it's low and backs on the sofa) and we keep telling her off and bringing her down but she just laughs and does it again, I put her on a cushion in the corner as a sort of time out spot and she started growling at me and hit me in the face. At that point I put her to bed, and when I've come in to talk to her, she pulled my hair and then fell asleep.
my eldest is 10 and I can't remember a lot of these years, I know it was hard but I can't remember if this is normal.
my middle child is autistic, and a lot of what would be considered typical developmental milestones she still hasn't met now at almost 5 so I feel like she never got to this terrible 2's stage because she was just very different to a typical 2 year old.
I feel like I'm out of practice, and don't actually know what to do, she dosnt listen to me or her dad, she laughs when told off. 🤯
