Is it normal for toddlers to save tantrums for their main parent?

[Waheymum]

I'm the primary parent to my toddler. Just wondering if it's normal for me to get all the tantrums and naughtiness while anyone else that interacts with her doesn't? I can literally ask her to do or give me something and get a tantrum, her grandparents or aunts (or even toddler's dad/my DH) can ask the same thing and she happily does it.

Sounds fairly normal, do they spend time with you the most?

That's how it works with mine too. It's bloody disheartening at times but pretty normal I think 😅

Yep, I'm there 100% of the time as I'm a SAHM.

Yep. You're the safe one.

I find "drop the rope" works best. Just walk away, (hopefully with something to do), or refuse to do whatever they want until they've done what you asked (e.g. teeth brushing).

Offer a cuddle once they come to you/comply - sympathise with the feeling but don't indulge it.

Thankyou, that's really helpful. :)
