Hello ladies,
Is anyone else’s LO’s being really naughty? If so how do you deal with it? I know they can’t be perfect all the time but our LO is really testing our patience lately. She is throwing food at meal times and constantly not listening to anything we say. When we tell her off she just thinks that it’s funny. It’s gotten so bad tonight that my partner ended up throwing her dinner in the bin because she was being so bad, and he took her up to bed. She has literally screamed the house down, our poor neighbours 😳😢 we also have a 6 month old so it just feels really hard at the moment. We have always counted down from 3 or used a calm down space for her when she’s been naughty but it feels like that doesn’t work anymore. I’ve started taking away things and given them back when she’s calm or started to listen. My partner is a lot harder than I am so we also disagree on some methods. I try to be more calm and he shouts and gets frustrated quickly 😩 any advice would be appreciated- thank you 🙏

Im in the same boat. Following! x
The only thing that works for us slightly is ignoring her tantrums and not give in. But when its been a long day, my partner tells her off sternly and she tends to listen to him better

Absolutely in the same boat, but only for us, good as gold at nursery & when he’s at grans etc.
It’s so difficult because sometimes when we tell him off he smirks & laughs which then just makes me so frustrated with him,
Sometimes quiet time in his room works other times he comes back down & it’s like he’s forgotten why he was up there & comes down & behaving exactly the same way again
