Terrible Twos

The "terrible twos" - they're inevitable if you have a normal child. Sometimes they even start a bit earlier than 2 years!!. They don't have to be so terrible - try and understand things from your 2 year old's perspective and it might be easier for you to manage.

There is a framework for dealing with child behavior problems (to read more, click here), but sometimes it can just get exhausting dealing with a willful toddler.

Mothers (and fathers) have insight into their own toddler's behavior and what worked for them during the "terrible two's" - this is a page where you can share your knowledge and experience - what worked and what didn't!

If you are dealing with the problem at the moment, you may get some helpful ideas from the visitors' comments below - to read them, click here. Then let us all know how you got on.
