Yeah, like whatever mum...

Our patience has been well and truly tested today with one naughty girl. There was just no telling A anything, no bargaining, no amount of naughty corners that made any difference to her behaviour.

She was constantly pushing D or fighting him for toys he was playing happily with, demanded chocolate and special treats, with meltdowns when she didn't get them, poured a glass of water all over her dinner, used her body as a blank canvas to scribble over and generally ignored any questions being asked of her. I could go on but I really must just go lie down in a darkened room instead.

Terrible twos? I think 3 is going to get a lot worse...
