Default Is this normal?


My daughter Amy will be two in October and oh my god i cant take her anywhere over the last two weeks or so...she takes no notice of me, no matter if i shout, try to bribe her with something or just try to talk to her. We went for lunch today with my friend and he son (he's 4) and about twenty minutes in Amy started...my friends son didnt want to share his drink (Amy had her own, she just wanted his aswell) but when he wouldn't give it to her she screamed and tore his face with her nails...the scrawl is not that bad but you could see it and it looked sore and a little bit swollen, i was mortified but i swear i dont know what to do with her these days. She just doesnt seem to mix well with kids her age, she wont share her toys, she is very rough and honestly i dread taking her anywhere these days. We were in a shop in town the other day and when a little boy about her age came in with his mother and when they walked by us she went to hit him but when she missed him she just picked her hand back up again and went to hit him again...needless to say again i was mortified. All i hear out of her these days is 'no', 'i dont like it' or 'go away'. I dont slap her when she's bold so i dont know where she's getting her temper and ive even tried the naughty step thing but she doesnt seem to understand what im trying to do. Is two old enough to understand correction? I dont know what to do with her anymore really i dont Anyone have any advice...im desperate at this stage

oh the joys of the terriable 2's !!! it will pass we went through it all with benjamin & i got quite upset thinking i was doing something wrong but with alot of patience & the naughty step for time out one day it all stoped & he went back to being good again!!!
good luck & don't worry yourself too much about it she is just testing her boundries with you to see how far she can cross the line. plus shes also found her voice !

Oh she's testing my patience alright, beautiful day today so we decided to go for a walk to the park and we lasted about 20 mins there because of her behaviour again. When she is on something she wont let anyone else have a go. She stood a shouted at a little girl that was about 3 because she wanted to go on the slide after Amy. She's not even afraid of older kids...its very embarrasing aswell because she's very tall and grown up looking so you'd never believe she's not even 2...she looks about 3 1/2 which makes it even worse. I dont know what to do with her...hopefully its just the age and she grows out of it soon. Thank god im not the only one that has gone through this tho...i was starting to wonder what i had done to make her act like this
