Look, I know you cannot reason with a four year old, I've tried and I cant find any way to explain it to where she will understand... She thinks that she can do whatever she wants and she doesnt care if I yell, ground, or spank her. I feel like Im living with a teen already.She isnt violent she doesnt hit but you can tell her 5 times not to do something in an hour and she deliberatley does it. Ive tried everything I can, including reasoning with her, and explaining to her why she has to follow the rules but I cant find the words to talk to her to where she will understand... She says Im mean to her and the only thing I can say is Im not mean to you, your being mean by not following the rules. Im at my wits end with her. I am always consistent with the punishment but shes so hard headed that shes consistant with behaving badly. Sometimes I feel like shes doing this to spite me. How do I handle my four year old who thinks shes fourteen what else can I try for punishment and how do I get
