[quote=Anonymous]First lots of hugs, love and attention. Second, relax, it will all work out. Do not target anything first. You might still see her as a baby, and while she is very young, three year olds are stubborn. The good thing is you can tell her this is a new start, new good food you are eating so it is good to have a clean start there without any fuss. You say she is already insecure when visiting you, so think of it as a new, fresh start, show her her room, tell her that is where you will cuddle before bed time. That is where she will sleep. Basically treat her like she is more grown than she is. Don't get into will fights and who is in charge here dominant behavior. Here is what worked with my high anxiety DS when he was 4. I told him, we are going to day care, you will hug me bye, bye, you will then go to your room and listen to your teacher. You will not grab my leg, you will not yell and drag yourself. Repeat nicely if needed. Trust me, it works much better than yelling and acting all in charge. Your first priority is making your DD secure with you, not so much with your house, but with you and your DH. There is a reason she is insecure and needy with you.[/quote]
