[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have a nanny, maid, and part-time cook and still get that angry and are unable to control it?  Number one.  Stop fighting battles that aren't worth fighting.  Throwing food?  One time and the meal is over.  If you are home, take her out of the high chair and tell her firmly.  Food on the tray.  Not on the floor.  If you are dumb enough to try and eat a sit down meal with a food throwing toddler at a restaurant, you are leaving early.  If she is hitting, pushing, kicking your stomach, your attention is removed from her.  No hitting.  No pushing.  No kicking.  That hurts.  If she does this when you are carrying her someplace, stop carrying her.  Make her walk or put her in a stroller or back pack.  Number two.  Get some help that allows you to refrain from losing it.  It will only get worse with two.[/quote]

Aside from the snarky first sentence, I think this is good advice. It sounds like some behavior needs to stopped before it escalates to the point you describe. Maybe your toddler needs firmer consequences and limits rather than just to be told 'no.' Some kids are just that way. Like mine. (-:[/quote]
