SUBJECT: Terrible two's are turning into terrible threes...
My daughter will be three on Tuesday. I am so confused about what to do with her. She can be such a sweet and loving child. She also can be mean, disrespectful, loud and unruly. I have been told that this is normal "acting out". We have tried spanking, time outs and corners, but she doesn't listen. No pleases and thank yous; she is very demanding and bossy. We argue with her atleast 2-3 times a day. Someone, is this normal behavior? When will it go away? (so that I can start counting down the days). I feel like a bad Mommy because I yell and correct her alot, I can't let her get away with rude behavior, it will only become a problem down the road if I don't address it now. We have been dealing with this for about 3 months. Any advice? Kind words? Suggestions? Thank you.
