| Is my Daughter spoiled? |
Hello, Everyone i really need your advice... I have a beautiful 1 and a half yr old Daughter she is full of life and has soooooooooo much energy she makes me laugh so much accept when she starts fussing and crying for nothing i mean i can't take her to the store she doesn't want to get into the car seat. She throws a fit when ever she can't have something and sometimes she just walks around the house and cries... I'm a stay at home mom and when your with your child all day everyday that can drive you crazy especially when you know she has a fresh diaper on she has been feed and she is usually a all around happy toddler what can i do to get her to not cry for everything in the stores and throw a fit PLEASE HELP |

| she doesnt seem spoiled to me. she just sounds like a normal little kid trying to test her boundries. you might want to consider implimenting a form of punnishment for her, when she gets like that, or she will learn real quik how her bad behaviour gets her what she wants, then she will get worse. best to "nip it in the bud" now. god bless and good luck! |

| Thank you so much for your reply... But what kind of punishment do you give to a 1yr old and would she even know what she is being punished for it's been so long since i've had to punish my kids i think i have lost my touch i'm so soft on her |

| i totally agree with teresa. any child is going to test their boundaries and limits to see what will be accepted. if you don't like what she's doing, you should let her clearly know! take away toys, tv, things she likes, just remember she is super young, so the punishment should be set for her, (a 2min. time out for example). if you don't address it now, you WILL regret it later! i actually came across a number that you may consider using. it's "the parental stress line" 1-800-632-8188. hope this helps! |

| I always carry a snack, drink and toy or book for my 23 month old, If we go to a store that has the little riding machines I will let him ride on the way out if he is good in the store (the sanity I get to keep is well worth the .50) If he starts acting up I will remind him no ride if he continues and he usually chills right out, if not then he gets to scream on the way out and I let him know if he continues he will not even get a chance to ride the next time. If she just doesn't like the car seat maybe some short trips to some place she really likes will help. As far as walking through the house crying just remember she still doesn;t have alot of communication skills, try asking her things like-------Do you want mom to get something for you? take me and show me what is wrong. (I did this and found that my toddler had developed a fear of flys and there was one in the window) |

| good advice Sherry Thank you so much. She and i are getting better with the communication thing, Now she grabs my hand and pulls me to what she wants... instead of throwing a tantrum... And as far as the store's we just have a little talk b4 heading in and if she gets fussy i just do something silly and she forgets about what she is screaming about witch is usually nothing... |

| Distraction, distraction, distraction...that has been the key for me. If she won't let go of something...I give her something else before I try to take said thing away. If shes getting fussy in the car, i've found those fisher price cds with kids signing makes her quiet right down...we drive a lot, and that has been a life saver for me. I don't think a child can be spoiled that young, they just don't have words yet, so it comes out like a bratty kid. |

| Thats what i thought at first but then i had some moms that were telling me oh she's just spoiled and after i heard that a couple times I started believing it but i think your right she is just to young to be spoiled and now i do things differently and it is much better.... I think that once i calm down she does and that makes it better for her... Thank you for advice i really appreciate it Have a great day :) |
