Welcome to the twos and threes! UGH!! Once when we were headed into the store, my three year old said she didn't want to ride in the cart and that she would not run away from me. When I told her she had one chance to not run away, she said, "Sometimes three year olds run away and sometimes we don't!"
WTH? She can easily replace it with, "Sometimes we hear and sometimes we don't." She has the ignoring me thing down completely!
I try 1-2-3 Magic, Love and Logic ,and timeouts and nothing really works, except making her come over to where I am and making her repeat what I said. She can repeat everything word for word each time, even if it takes her a few minutes to get her to do it. I have found that if I can get her to repeat what I've said, she is better. But really, if anyone has something that is working.....
I do threaten to call the Super Nanny and she is terrified that SN will come put her in a timeout. SN had already left a note and one day she dropped off the House Rules. But it only gets me so far.
