[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 567271, member: 11847"] In a lot of ways, J actually reminds me of Sweet Pea. I know she is a lot younger, but she is a handful! She is sweet, loving and all the other great qualities you can think of. But she is also extremely determined, opinionated (despite her lack of words!), throws terrible violent tantrums and think she is at least 10 years old. You should see her in a group of kids, she is right with them and will simply not tolerate to be considered a baby. I don't have a magic bullet of course, and I'm certain J differs from Sweet Pea in a lot of ways. But I find that she is in a better place when I give her LOTS of choices through out the day. "Will you wear your boots or your shoes?" instead of imposing my choice of footwear. "do you want rice or potatoes for supper?" Should we pick green apples or red apples? Oh, no apples... ok. What fruit then?". A million different choices through out the day. Just an idea... Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
