My mum tells me children used to be quieter

I just hope I'm listening to her 😭 it's so hard when they're badly behaved cause it sometimes means they're trying to get your attention for something and I just hope I'm meeting all her needs
I'm sure you are! 1 and 3 is a super difficult age! My boys are almost 2 and 4 and they rarely listen throughout the day 😂 they're rambunctious and crazy but they're in a safe environment and respectful when they need to be. These early ages, they're learning how things work and love to push all the boundaries they can.
They do push all boundaries actually. When she hit me I actually cried I wish I didn't but I just couldn't help myself. It was very hurtful
My oldest calls me mean all the time when I have to discipline him, I'm like I'm not trying to be mean 😭😭
Oh no. They're so cheeky aren't they. I hate the mum guilt when I have to put her in the thinking corner. I just decided to call it that cause her nursery have a little thinking table they sit at when they need time out. I think I needed to hear another mum's point of view so thanks ❤️
It's nothing you did or your children did. Children back then were expecting to be quiet and got punished (sometimes severely) if they weren't. There were quite a few generations that believed children should be seen and not heard.
