I was warned when in line for pics with the Easter bunny this past March. A woman told me that the 2's were bad, the 3's were worse and then, at four, her daughter is starting to be "normal" again. eek! I think when I treat her like a big girl and give her a little room and a few choices in her day, she has a better day. And stick to your guns when it comes to bad behavior. She knows I don't tolerate the flailing fits... that means room or time out chair for cool down time. And she must use words and not whining. Otherwise I say, "too bad I cannot hear Libby. When she uses her words, I can help her." Usually she straightens up. <br/><br/>good luck! I am really hoping this isn't a two year process... but from what I hear, it's just begun. ;) By the time she's settled, Logan will be ready to start up.
