[quote=Anonymous]The only thing our three year understands is Soviet-style limited choices and shows of power. Two outfit options in the morning, if she doesn't like them, I put one on her and she cries for five minutes and moves on. Doesn't want to eat what's in front of her? It gets put up until she says she wants to eat it (no alternatives). Doesn't want to take a shower? Throw her over my shoulder, turn on the shower, throw her toys in the shower, and suddenly she wants to get in. She was a very easy baby - but the toddler years have been difficult. We tried explaining and rewards, but it just didn't work for her. We have to tolerate 5-10 minutes of a tantrum once or twice a day, but that's about it.[/quote]
