Ok, really getting fed up with this now! I hope i am not alone.

Lily's tantrums are driving me nuts. For eg. Today she wants some of Dh's milkshake, so he gave her a bit. Then she started screaming, hi-pitched, blood curdling scream. Started flabbing about and grab the drink and threw it on the floor. It is like she thinks everything should be hers and hers alone. This happens several times a day with food, drink, anything that either Dh or I have. She even take away Charlie's dummy because she can't have one. (She can't have one because she keeps biting off the teat part in one day and we cant afford to buy one every day. That's also another problem because she doesnt sleep well without a dummy.) Yelling doesnt work, talking calming doesn't work. I even resorted to smacking her once(which i totally hated) and that didn't even work. I've tried bribary, EVERYTHING! Nothing works on her. She is as stubborn as DH! What do i do? I cannot reson with her because she just doesnt understand. She does know what she does is wrong, i can tell but she just wont give up until we give in. It is especially annoying in the car when all she does is scream and whinge and i cant concentrate! I swear this is why she wont talk, she loves to annoy me with all this whinging and screaming!!!
