I know I am spoiled with my kid. She has made it too easy for so long that when normal, age appropriate behavior pops up loudly it can be frustrating. When I go to pick her up at the end of the day I am the last person she wants to see. It breaks my heart. I know she just enjoys playing with her friends, it isn't personal, but it hurts.
She has been testing boundaries and getting grumpy when she doesn't get her way. It's so atypical of her. We'll get through it, I just hope I am approaching things in the best way possible. I don't like to punish her by taking things away or saying no, but let's be honest -- a good dose of no is healthy in the long run.
