[quote=Anonymous]Frankly, I have a 2.5 year old and everything you describe sounds par for the course (I have a difficult child from day 1). That being said, I don't fight over small things. Relax, I think you should not fight with her at all. If she doesn't want to use the potty, then fine let her either wet herself or stop somewhere on the way (only after she gets uncomfortable). Don't choose her clothes, but give her a timer and if she's not dressed in (5min) then you get to choose her clothes or have her set out clothes the night before. When she slams her door, leave her be. She doesn't HAVE to play with her sister. But continue to try to re-engage her in play. Use timeouts only for large offenses, not small offenses. Give LOTS of love. LOTS. I can tell she doesn't feel loved and that you don't love her, thus she continues to act out. [/quote]
