So, I am gonna pull my hair out or loose my mind. I have encouraged my daughter to use her brain and now I kinda regret it! She says NO! to me a lot, is in that stage where she wants to do everything by herself ESPECIALLY when we don't have time for her to do everything by herself and seems to space out when I remind her for the 10th time NOT to throw the ball in the house. She will then throw the ball in the house yet again. ARGH! These are just a few of the things happening lately. Shit, there's a ton of em! I found myself at Barnes & Noble today looking at the Sears Discipline book. Not sure what I need here. More patience? Time outs? Ignore it and it will go away? How much attention should I give to this behavior? She is obviously pushing boundaries and I don't know how far to let her go. I don't want to be the grumpy mama!
Thanks, ladies!
