4 year old attitude!
Anyone else going through this. My nearly 4 yr old, going on nearly 14, has a right attitude! And I am done with it. We explain it is not nice to speak like that etc then she will hit because you've told her off, we do time out for hitting. And now, where on earth it has come from, she is spitting in your face! She is not learning, if we take anything else away she'll have nothing to to pay with! Feeling anxious 🙁🥲

@Amy Oh my goodness... My LG doesn't want to eat dinner which is heartbreaking after making a meal and she doesn't eat it. Same with the attitude, she's rude, and only the other day she was sat in my lap, she put her hands on my face and suddenly headbutted me! Wtf she's never done that before. Her developmental skills are great, like colouring, writing etc very ready for school. I keep saying to myself it's just a phase but it feels like it's been going on for ages now. And my patience is running low. It's hard. I'm dredding teenage years of this is what it's like now 🫣
I'm not gonna lie, 3/4 is not a fun age 🙈 the attitude is real!

Oh yes! We are here too, just this morning he climbed on the side to eat butter, moved that out of his way, he grabbed the cough mixture to “have more” (his had the awful cold going around) then he picks up the gin that is right at the back of the side to try and drink. Obviously completely out of reach now. He is absolutely refusing to eat anything not beige, fruit or chocolate. His attitude stinks, his meltdowns are like nothing his had before. The hitting, pushing, head butting is next level. It’s definitely developmental though because his fine motor skills are great right now. His colouring in is actually really good from just 3 weeks ago, he can write his name fully, his concentration (when used) and focus has increased. We’re riding it out but it’s soo hard!
