[quote=Anonymous]Congratulations! You have a smart and stubborn toddler! We have one, too. But we don't lock her in the closet. You have already identified that your kid's behavior is just him asserting his independence and power. But, he's 2.5. You don't negotiate with toddlers. "Because I said so" is a perfectly valid answer. Validate his feelings, but the conversation ends because you are the adult and ultimately your decisions are what matters. Parenting is not a democracy. [/quote]
