[quote=Anonymous]My normally sweet 2.5 yo started telling us to “go away!” this week when she doesn’t like something, like when it’s time to stop playing and eat dinner. She also has started saying things like “stop, mommy! You stop singing!” and she will yell it loudly until we stop whatever it is that’s “bothering” her. What’s the best way to deal with these rude interludes? I’ve tried saying “that’s not nice to say, Larla. Do you need some time alone?” but I’m not sure if that’s a good approach or if it’s sinking in. Hoping this is a phase but would love some input from anyone who has BTDT with a suddenly rude toddler.
