[quote=Anonymous]For those of you with older kids who found 3 the hardest, can you identify what thing or things shifted that made it easier as they got older? I am working with a wonderful but absolutely exhausting 3 yr old and I guess I'm looking for light at the end of the tunnel. Specifically, I'm talking about the push back and, to a lesser degree, whining. All the "no way" and "I'LL do it" and "I don't want to." The whining is also a challenge but I know that's partly just a kid thing and something we'll have to keep working on. But the pushback on everything is so exhausting, it means nothing is easy, even fun activities that I know she's excited about. It just wears me down. Anyway, would love to know what might break that dam. I know being a parent is never easy, but I am definitely hoping that age 4 and 5 will be a little less exhausting.[/quote]
