Terrible 2s!!!!

[JustAddCoffee91]

How do you get through the terrible 2 stage? He's not 2 until December but ohh god! The tantrums every 5 minutes!... refusing to eat anything unless it's beige and pushing his little brother (9 months) and screaming whenever he makes eye contact with him.... I'm hiding in the bathroom for 5 minutes just to take a deep breath, he is teething mind he's had calpol & bonjella but still.... my head and body aches

How do you cope with the tantrums? I'm gonna be a bad parent today and put cartoons on (probably all day) and Covid is making things even worse I can't even take them to visit family or friends it's so isolating and is really affecting my mental health
Thanks anyone who reads this

Its soul destroying isnt it.

Loud music and just ignore and dance and sing

Dont ask him to do stuff, just tell him or give only two choices

He wont starve himself (if he is like 98%) of toddlers, so he will eat eventually if you dont just give him snacks

Try and get him to sleep more

Ignore, ignore, ignore
