Help! I need feedback!

Ok, so Mason has definitely hit the terrible two's! He's cranky, stubborn, aggressive, and there's no compromising with him. What have you other moms done when they reach this crazy age?

Well one thing to remember is that as Mom's we all go through the terrible two's with our children. Some have it worse than others and some don't have it too bad. Either way, just try to be very patient with the little cutie! I at times have not been so patient with Daxton and look back on it and regret it. After all they are our little angels who are so smart, cute and innocent. They are still learning and need to be loved and nurtured either way. For me Daxton didn't start his "terrible twos" until he was 3! Also one other piece of advice would be to find a way to handle his tantrums and stick with it if it seems to be working. The biggest and hardest thing is to hold your ground and to follow through with anything you might decide to say or do.

I remember this being a pretty hard stage for me to get used to because to discipline your kids and get them to listen and behave is actually A LOT OF HARD WORK. Sometimes I would just let things fly because it was easier that way rather than to have to try to punish Daxton or get him to cooperate. However, in the end it is so worth it to do what you need to do in order to have good kids with nice manners that listen and obey! :)
