The ones that don't have kids yet - they'll learn soon enough.<br /><br />You weren't asking for advice, so feel free to tell me to shut up, but here are my ideas...you could tell her to go to her room and scream or throw stuffed animals against the wall until she feels calm and then she can come out. You could also get her a "Feelings Journal" and when she is mad, she can write about how she feels. Hey, it helps us feel better, right? You're a great mom, and you are doing a great job!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13164420416881517854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271931822987740572.post-67266219265399937102011-03-14T19:17:27.842-07:002011-03-14T19:17:27.842-07:00Be strong.

This is usually because I haven't allowed her to buy a toy at the store or have someone for a sleepover on a school night. I hope that missing out on yet another toy is indeed the worst thing that ever happens to her.<br />We don't really have the screaming fits - it's the little pissy attitude that I can't abide. She has the eye-rolling down to a fine art.<br />You hang in there, and I'll do the same, and in a few years we'll get our girls together to compare notes on how awful their Mommies were to them. :)Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02190489990653412687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271931822987740572.post-90083300541995806222011-03-14T04:01:31.803-07:002011-03-14T04:01:31.803-07:00My son turns 6 today and he is already starting wi...My son turns 6 today and he is already starting with the "you don't love me" garbage.
