I have worked with children before and the key is just to be firm and dont give in...eventually it will pat off
I'm kind of young and I don't have kids, but through babysitting, I think that 3 year olds are actually the toughest, they become more curious and they are better with words and think they can get what they want, they are loud and high maintenance, keep your head high don't give in and invest in some ear plugs
good luck.
Terrible two's go all the way until they are 3 or 4. Be consistant with your little one and she will eventually realize, 'hey, mom means business.' It's not easy by any means but being consistant is definitely worth it. When she asks you for something, just say, 'I'm sorry sweetheart but I can't give you what you want right now because you are not being nice.' Ignore the screaming. She does it so you will give in.
Im surprised she still has vocal cords from as much screaming that she has done in the past two monts...ITS AWFUL!!!
ahaha... I feel ya!! tho I'm still 17, without any kids... I babysit and I've done co-op in a kindergarden class!! sheedwwe is right, being firm and showing her you're serious and not playing around is key!! - don't scream, and don't tell her that she's bad, it'll discourage her and make her feel worse and act worse towards you, instead, take her by the hand, and tell your daughter that her BEHAVIOUR is bad!! - and explain to her why! for example - screaming can give her a sore throat, and if she gets a sore throat she'll have to take medicine, stay in bed, and not be able to play!!- plus it gives mummy a headache! if she dose things, like grabbing things and throwing them around - tell her she'll have to clean it up OR lead her into something she can do - like watching a movie or colouring!! threats also work well.. tell her she'll have no dessert, you won't take her to the park, you won't give her a surprise... ect. when she dose something bad! I know it's tough... hang in there!! she's at her stage where she's able to talk back and it's your job to teach her what's right and what's wrong! you'll be fine! you're one heck of a super mum! =)
