2 -year molars? Yeah, it doesn’t end. My 5 year old is still a VERY stubborn and moody kind of kid. Very sensitive. But, we started seeing that trend at 1. We had terrible ones, threes and sort of now…fives! Maybe it is just teething, if you’re lucky. Good luck!

Oh lord. I feel your pain, sister. My 2yo has begun the horrific fake crying and spontaneous combustion. It is enough to make a Mama loser her cool. Doing my best not to shout in frustration.

This is a great post! It had me smiling, relating and unscrunching my brow (as I have been dealing with the “terrible 3s” all day today)! All that happens when they turn 3, is they they get more sophisticated in their unreasonalbe demands. The funny thing is, as much unhappiness they are creating for themselves, they forget about when it is over. These episodes are enough to have mom’s teeth clenched and shoulders up to her ears all day! Don’t you wish we could recover from the tantrums as quickly as they can???? Those little buggers causing so much drama, the nerve!

My son has just entered the terrible 2′s except his thing is physically throwing himself around when he doesn’t get his way, scream, kick and what I call “fake whining”. It can be frustrating because they can’t express themselves the way an older sibling can and two is the age they test and test…I try to be persistant in letting him know that behaviour is unacceptable, ignoring to an extent can help too. It’s hard but we love them..good luck, I know I need it too some days
