What we tell her, unless we make it a game.
Im typically very patient with my kids - maybe too patient.
I wasn't in the mood for games tonight, and tried to get her lay down to put on a diaper. She refused. She had been stubborn all night, teasing her sister, hitting and kicking her parents, etc.
I lost it, picked her up, put her on her bed and slammed her door, loudly saying "I'm done with you tonight!"
I felt terrible. That's not me.
My wife heard it (she was working on primary stuff, she's president) and told me next time to ask to tag team so I don't yell and slam the door on a 3 year old. She wasn't pleased.
I feel like I let down my wife and my little girl.
Parenting is very hard sometimes. 🙁
