My daughter is surly in the terrible 2 she does not listen at all and it's pissing me off to the point I want to kick her into next week. She really winds me up and I just walk away nothing works with her. Telling her off, taking things off her. Putting her in bed. She just constantly screams and boots everything. She has started to hit me when I tell her no I don't know where that's come from I've never laid a finger on her.
She is with me 24/7 she's not left my side once since I've had her. I really need help with this I'm starting to be more distant towards her due to her behaviour getting so bad.
I just don't know what's happened to her she had just switched massively
