toddler saying NOOO
posted 4th Jul '12
my 2 and a half yr old has been telling me No alot lately and its driving me crazzy! what do you ladies do or say to them when they say that or should i just let it go.. i dont know but she has been getting an attitude alot latley and being moody and a drama queen. i think she is getting it from her older cousin who is 7 and i dont want to have to keep them apart all the time becasue thats LOs bff but im soo over her attitude!

Let it go, it's a normal part of development.

You should react with more drama and attitude and say NOOO to her NOOO's. Jk, thats what you shouldn't do. She's learning to assert her will and believe it or not its healthy and a part of her building her character. She's like "Oh, I have choices? Cool- NOOOO! and NOOO to that too" Its annoying but it will pass eventually.

Up until I read this post I had not thought about them saying NO. I had to smile because my son has stopped saying it to me . I know it's hard to deal with now but pick your battles there are much worse things that your kids will do at this age then tell you NO all the time. and they do stop saying it.
