I Don't Like Rules!

Eli has been a terror lately. He is throwing the worst fits and just screams and cries over the littlest things. Scott and I decided that if he is having one of his tantrums that we will tell him that if he doesn't stop he needs to go to his room until he has calmed down. The other night at supper, Eli didn't want to eat what we were having...no big deal. Then he decided he wanted ice cream...sorry Eli, no ice cream for supper! He started to scream and cry and Scott told him if he didn't stop he would have to go to his room. Eli asked "Why?". Scott told him that was our rule. Eli replied "I don't like rules!".

  1. I have a 2.5 yr old, and lately, has also been throwing tantrums and fits when she doesn't get her way. What's worse, is how sensitive she is. Even if you say to her, "please dont," in a quiet voice. She literally freaks out in hysterical crying. Ugh! Got to love our 06 babies.
