My daughter's English and tantrums. I've been having a hard time these days. My daughter who'll turn 3 in two weeks has tantrums. It's really hard to deal with them. When we're out in a store and wants something particular and doesn't get it, she rolls on the floor and acts out. When I try to cope with her feelings and want to explain to her why she can have what she wants, she hits me. It ends up with me sending her to discipline in a corner of the store for a couple of minutes the time she cools down. The problem is she still does it and even if I send her to time-out she'll repeat that bad behavior anyway one moment or another. Today she is sick, she has a cold. She told me her ears were hurting. I understood it was an 'otite' (in French --> I don't know the name in English). The doctor gave her antibiotics. So even if she is complaining and not in a good mood, I stay understanding toward my little love. Parenting is a hard job, I know understand my parents when they had to get me disciplined. I try to listen to podcasts about parenting. I want to get many point of views about this topic. My toddler was so cute when she told me in English: 'I don' wanna go 'to' see the docta' ' No docta, no medicine'. Then I noticed she had a band-aid at her knee because she had felt a school: Don' touch my kneeeeeeeeee! I replied: 'I'm not touching your knee, it's your thigh' -Don' touch my figh! My wife was lying on the couch wearing my jacket 'Look daddy, it's not mama's jacket, it's daddy's jacket!!!!' She adresses to me in English and speaks French to my wife. It's so cute. Sometimes she mixes both.

My daughter's English and tantrums.

I've been having a some hard times these days. My daughter who'll turn 3 in two weeks has tantrums. It's really hard to deal with them. When we're out in a store and she wants something in particular and doesn't get it, she rolls around on the floor and acts flips out. When I try to cope deal with her feelings and want to explain to her why she can't have what she wants, she hits me.
It ends up with me sending her to discipline in a corner of the store for a couple of minutes the of time-out until she cools down.
The problem is she still does it and even if I send her to a time-out she'll repeats the bad behaviour anyway again from one moment or to the another.

Today she is sick, she has a cold. She told me her ears were hurting. I understood suppose it was an 'otite' otitis (in French --> I don't know the name in English).
The doctor gave her antibiotics. So even if when she is complaining and not in a good mood, I stay understanding toward my little love.
Parenting is a hard job, I know understand my parents now when they had to get me disciplined me. I try to listen to podcasts about parenting. I want to get many point of views about this topic.

My toddler was so cute when she told me in English: 'I don' wanna go 'to' see the docta' ' No docta, no medicine'.

Then I noticed she had a band-aid on her knee because she had felt fallen at school: Don' touch my kneeeeeeeeee!
I replied: 'I'm not touching your knee, it's your thigh'
-Don' touch my figh!
My wife was lying on the couch wearing my jacket
'Look daddy, it's not mama's jacket, it's daddy's jacket!!!!'

She addresses to me in English and speaks French to with my wife. It's so cute. Sometimes she mixes both.


This is an adorable entry. Having a nearly three year old boy I know exactly what you're going through. Though he has toned down the hitting recently he still loves to pinch! And tantrums will plague us for many years to come i'm afraid.

How is it that your daughter can already speak English? Does she go to an international school?

Take care!

I've been having a hard time these days. My daughter who'll turn 3 in two weeks has tantrums. It's really hard to deal with them. When we're out in a store and she wants something particular and doesn't get it, she rolls on the floor and acts up out. When I try to cope with her feelings and want to explain to her why she can't always have what she wants, she hits me.
It ends up with me disciplining her by sending her to a corner of the store for a couple of minutes till she cools down.
