you go "STOP SPITTING.. IF YOU DO THAT AGAIN I'LL, I'LL " then you give up and post on MN looking for better ideas than the time outs, distraction and telling off

thats pretty much the stage i'm at twiglett

she has spent more time in time out than playing today.

i feel like taping her mouth

she keeps spitting on my lovely clean windows.

at least your 4year old isnt obsessed with where her 'hole' is and trying to find it all the time.

[sighs]
