I had a screaming fit tonight.
She was yelling like she was being killed for an hour and then got asked if she wanted a smack and to be quiet or she would get one.
She shouted NO! and got a smack.
Then she had a small pause and began screaming again for another hour before sleeping.
I should stress, this is the sound of a child being murdered, but if you are with her you see that it is not so much screaming as shouting the sound of a scream. She is a little distressed, but mostly it is just noise making.
we're all not perfect :)
its all trial (sic) and error, I would have responded to the 'no' with
WHAT DO THE FUCK YOU WANT THEN!
ah,
the old confuse them and run ploy
I offered her just about everything.
Basically we had the standard protest shrieking because she did not want to be in bed.
The other two had grown out of this by the time they were 18 months, but this one is a shite-bag and no mistake.
don't worry
all parent's pray for the day when they can give it back to their kids
Eldest doesn't have clue what my T-Shirt will be on his 18th in December, by then he'll have lived here 4.5 months
