She is four and thinks shes 20 or something! I ask her to do something ans she doesnt listen. Then by the 5th or 6th time telling her im screaming and shes crying. Then her mouth starts how she doesnt like me or love me, everythings no, and so on so forth. ITS SO FRUSTRATING!!! please give me some helpful hints.!.!

I am not sure I have a 6 yr old boy and went through that to. Still sometimes do. I don't yell or scream I send him to his room make him lay in his bed not get up till he can do what I ask and apologize. Sometimes he yells and screams, throws big fits but I do not give in. I make sure he stays in the bed if he gets out I put him back in. Thats all I have! If anyone else posts anything else that works let me know! Good luck!!
