[quote=Anonymous]Title says it all- my daughter is 2.5 and we are entering the typical "terrible two" behavior. When it's just me and her, like this morning, things run fairly smooth. No fighting and we get out the door without a tantrum If my DH is around, things get tough. Everything is "bad mommy!" "no mommy- DAD DO IT!" "be quiet mommy", "Mommy got the wrong cup *cry cry cry*", etc etc. She told me to shut up on Sunday night! I seriously cannot do anything right when he is around. SO... What would you do? A. Ignore and let dad do everything B. Say too bad and just let her cry when I do something C. Start time out D. OTHER? Of course I've talked to her and tried the calm approach, Ive read the How to Talk to Kids book, but I'm just lost on how to handle this. Talking calmly and explaining that it hurts my feelings or that dad is unavailable right now and mom has to do it is NOT working. [/quote]
