Behaviour issues!

My nearly 4 yo little girl is becoming increasingly naughty and doesn’t follow any instructions given by me or my husband. She would literally ignore us and do what she thinks is right. We are both very gentle parents but nowadays we find ourselves increasing our voice and then she will listen. She has also learnt some words/ intonation from somewhere and keeps on repeating it ( e.g You do not tell me what to do, I am not gonna be happy about it or no mommy you are not allowed to ask my questions or make me do things, THATS not Allowed . I obviously just laugh about it and ignore, as it does sound learnt statements but as it’s getting repeated every day, I am a little bit worried now. You lovely mommas tell me I am exaggerating and it’s just a phase like that? Or shall be worried ? Thanks to those who respond. xx

Sounds exactly the same as what we are going through with our son, also nearly 4. So hard to deal with but I do think its normal

We’re going through the same thing right now, plus a newborn! He’s so angry and keeps shouting “you can’t tell me what to do!” which I have no idea where he’s heard that! I know he’s got some big feelings around the new baby and being a big brother but his mood swings are so unlike him 😑😮‍💨

Thank you lovely for responding, this is putting my mind at ease. xx

My sons the same, I think we all go through it at this stage! My sons shouts no everything time I ask him something or ask him to do something. But my son has development issues which could be affecting him.
