Do any of you BTDT Moms/Dads/Nannies have any advice
on where to go for discipline advice(books, etc.)?
I have a high maintenance 2.5 year old and I'm looking
for constructive, positive ways to keep her from sending
me to the looney bin, lol!
I've been looking online and now my head is spinning, there's
just so much info out there!
I realize that not having enuf structure and schedule
is working against us, she does however have a good sleeping schedule,
thank heaven she's a good sleeper!
So I know lack of sleep is not the issue and for the most part she eats well,
just the occasional toddler hunger strike .
I'm considering putting her in a nursery school 1-2 days a week
which I think will help, she LOVES, LOVES, LOVES being with
other kids in this type of setting and the activity would be good for her.
Really, I just want to find a way to discipline her w/o making
her feel like she's being *bad*....she's having a bit of trouble
dealing with all the attention that the baby gets and some of the
acting out is also due to that. She gets too rough with the baby
and has now started hitting us.
Anyhow, sorry for rambling ...if anyone could point me in the right
direction, I would appreciate it sooooo much!
Thanks!
