Most awesomely ridiculous toddler meltdowns

20 month old stands at the end of our driveway whining and crying about his "brrb" (balloon) daily. It popped there 3 days ago, and he's still looking for it.

When my son was about 3 I told him it was time to leave the park and go to Barnes and Noble. He stating crying hysterically and saying, "I don't want to go to Barnes, I want to go to Noble". I think he cried all the way there till her realized I was right and Barnes and Noble was one place not two. He is 5 now and he loves hearing that story.

My 2 year old cried hysterically this morning because I wouldn't let him write the check for his daycare and then I wouldn't let him play with our lawnmower.

After months of constantly removing her shoes and socks herself (which caused her to essentially go barefoot in cold weather during some daycare walks), she cried hysterically - kicking and screaming - when I tried to take off her new summer shoes. When DH came home, she brought her new shoes to him and lifted her leg up trying to get him to put her shoes back on.

One time when my DD was a toddler she was having a massive meltdown, and I was getting pretty exasperated with her, so I asked her "What's WRONG? Why are you having tantrum after tantrum this evening???" She responded "I'm two!!!" It stopped me dead in my tracks with how true and how wise her response actually was. She's 5 now and still has the odd tantrum, but there's more logic to most of them!

I think yours the best one. "I'm two!" sooooo true. Wise answer.

This reminds me of the story (maybe I read it here on DCUM, but I forget where) of the toddler who threw a tantrum, the parent was carrying them outside for their tantrum and on the seemingly LONG trip to the door, the child screams "Stop treating me like a CHILD"

My toddler lost her mind when, after she asked to get down from her booster seat, I unbuckled the straps on said booster seat. Lost. Her. Mind. Apparently, I was supposed to remove her from the seat without unbuckling her.
