how does this small little thing make me feel so bloody awful. He's 19 months old and currenly on the naughty step for throwing his cup on the floor (again). I've told him he can get off but he's choosing to sit there and scream :-(. He had one this morning as he didn't want a wash and one at toddlers when another child wanted to play with same toy. He actually threw a ride on cart thing. I let his scream a while on floor then, then he let me pick him up and had a cuddle and all was well again. He's getting bad for throwing things. Someone please tell me all this is normal and it passes. How do you cope with them? I'm ignoring at the moment knowing he's safe but it's so damn hard and I'm tearing up inside and feel close to tears. I havnt raised my voice to him, just firm. He's been doing it a month now and they are getting more frequent. I would try and avert them
But sometimes I have no idea what's wrong :-(
