toddler's talk 1- My corrected version is below.
I have 2-year-old twins. They recently entered the so-called "terrible-twos", especially my daughter.
She cried out loudly twice yesterday, because of stubborn ideas and wanted do something all by herself. In the morning, as we got her dressed, she wanted to do it herself and repeatedly kept crying and yelling, "Dress by myself! Dress by myself!" (『自己穿!自己穿!』in Chinese, I want to know the correct way to express this meaning in a two-year-old kid tones. PLEASE correct me in simple and short form of common native speaker kid's use. THANKS!)
Again during the evening of the same day, she cried lots of tears just because we turned off the light for bedtime. We had to turn on the light immediately. Little did we think, she would say, "On by myself! On by myself!" (『自己开!自己开!』in Chinese, again, any proper word as a two-year-old tone?) We had no choice but to turn on the light again and let her turn it off by herself.
My wife and I love our kids deeply, and just hope the tantrums will be gone soon.
My children would always say "I do it myself!" or when they were younger they would say "I do it!". This phase will quickly pass- I promise!
