Terrible Two's

So the terrible two's are in full swing at my house. As well as the "what's that" phase. It can be quite frustrating when all you hear every two seconds all day long is "what's that" or the temper tantrums. All you want to do is grab the child and scream at them. That is not really good for them or for you. Not only does screaming at them make them cry more it also makes them scared of you, and who wants their child to be scared of them.

As for it not being good for you, while it might make you feel better temporarily in the long run it will never be good. You could start feeling depressed that you acted out like that. or it could even raise your blood pressure. Not to mention other repercussions should you take it a step to far and accidentally injure the child.

Just remember to take a step back from the situation and Breath. Ask for help when you need it or before it goes to far. Try to never let the situation get to far out of hand.
