She is violent, can tantrum for hours, refuses to sleep/eat/get dressed/shower/bath/change dirty nappy/insert other completely reasonable request. When she doesn't get her own way instantly, she melts down. Seriously screams and throws herself on the floor for ages, won't be comforted, won't be distracted. Well she may be distracted for short times but will return to meltdown mode despite our best efforts. She hits and pinches and pulls hair when she wants what DS does. DS of course is a complete moron and lets her do it while crying "mummy she hit/pinched/hurt me". I have told him over & over to move away from her when she does it but he won't . She's been like this for a few months now and has only just turned two. Comforting, ignoring, time out, time in, distracting, bribery, punishment (ie toys taken away) - nothing works!!
I'm screaming banshee mum ATM because I just can't cope with it. I realise it's probably normal, I'm sure DS did similar things I just can't really remember (how the memory fades lol!).
Tell me it will end. And soon. Please.
And please share your terrible 2yo stories to make me feel normal again
