[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a volitile household and found therapy helpful in processing the chasm between the dynamic I was raised with and how I parent my 3 year old. Agree with prior posters - this doesn't sound like disrespect from a 3 year old, more like expressiveness and testing reactions. We respond to claims of "yucky" with you don't have to eat it but that's dinner. Sometimes a low effort staple choice is offered - peanut butter toast or cereal/banana for example. We respond to requests to leave her alone by honoring those requests when we can yet also sticking to very set routines for bedtime/stories/lights out/ etc. I'm sorry for the abuse you suffered.
