His descriptions are hilarious because they're so like children that age. But that teacher is right, kids do learn how to manipulate their parents! I'm pretty strict with the kids, and I tell DD1 straight up when I know what she's doing that I know what she's doing, and she's always like, "How did you know?!" Lmao. She's almost 6 now so it's a different dynamic, but I have definitely BTDT.
As for DD2, I'm just glad she's not 3 yet. But when she is, I know I have to kinda be a tiger mom and not take any sh!t. Because 3 year olds are jerks!!
We were (and still are) reallllly lucky with DD1. I can't say we ever really hit the terrible 2's. Or 3's. I'm sure we're going to pay for it down the road. Or that DD2 will more than make up for it.
