Hi I'm sure there are quite a few of you out there in the same situation as me (at least I hope there is). I have a 4 1/2 and 3 year old who are giving me no end of worries. It's like they get together at night and think right how can we wind mum up tomorrow!!! I also have a 9 month old so things are really hectic. My 4 year old is due to start school in August and TBH I think that's really what's needed she is really bright (I know all parents say that) but nursery have commented on how bright and intelligent she is as well. I think alot of it with her is boredom and my 3 year old tends to follow her lead and has frequent tantrums which I try to ignore and they run circles round me. They fight constantly and are just so cheeky. They were calling me 'mum pimpy bum' in the bank this afternoon which is mildly amusing if it was only me but not so when it is full of strangers!!! Any tips on disiplining them. I don't know if having the baby has had an effect on them but I do try to spend time with them individually but when they're being horrid I can see it far enough as I just want to strangle them . I put them in the room or time out zone when they're really bad but they enjoy it and say to me 'mum just put me in the time out zone'. I've tried taking toys off them but TBH they don't really play with a lot of toys. They've even been grounded goodness I think I was about 11 before I got grounded. Sorry it's so long. Please help.
P.S. I've spoken to nursery and they are very well behaved and obviuosly different girls in there (typical)
