They don't call it the terrible twos for nothing. Yes there is a good chance your child will be a bit of a naughty girl but if you teach her and keep her in line then she will learn not to do all those awful things like yelling no back to you or slapping and other stuff like that. Of course if you are lucky your little one won't get too bad while finding out who she is...that is what it really is all about, the child is discovering who they are.

The degree depends on the kid...but there isn't a lot (in my opinion) that you can do to prevent some brattiness at this age. Our three year old twins are pretty good, most of the time...and seem to be worse at home than when we are out.
Kids at this age are often frustrated because they can't communicate exactly what they want/need so they act out. They are also pushing their limits so they can find out what those limits are.

It's called the terrible 2's for a reason....actually my son is more of a pain the @ss now at 3 than at 2....why, cuz they are growing out of their toddler stage & they are going to test you in every way...also they are starting to develop & show their personalities...don't base you friends childs behavior on how your own child will be...all kids are different....it's not being bratty, keep in mind, it's like their still part baby but growing into being a big girl/boy. Its a transition for them, and like all transitions, sometimes they are not all smooth ;)
PLUS, Your kid will only be as "bratty" as you allow them to be! So thank God for a lil discipline! ;)

At 40 and 40 two, your mom and father are going to be fifty 8 and 60 whilst this toddler is a senior. They possibly do no longer prefer to be doing proms and dating and homework and school on the age they could be questioning approximately retiring. And at 40, existence starts off getting somewhat extra good bodily. that's harder to handle the noise and interest point of youthful babies. you're saying you're prepared to help, even though it is your mom that has to wade by way of yet another being pregnant and the better danger her age brings to the two her and the toddler.

They don't call it the "terrible two's" for nothing. It is about this age that kids start discovering independence and they need to "test". They will intentionally do things bad to see what your reaction is. This is why it is very important that you reinforce "right and wrong" at this stage. Your child WILL be bratty at this age. Stick to your guns and keep reinforcing right and wrong, everything will be golden.

My wife and I raised two children loveable adorable children that were never a problem because we dumped our love into them from the very start they were born and when you do this...it's the winning magic to success.
There is no terrible two's or three's.
Our children were Angels all the way and I would do it again if I could, but right now I am waiting for grandchildren and then I will do it all over again.
The secret to success with children comes from the parents and how much love and care you dump into your child is what you reap out of it.

Yes, they will try every last inch of your patience. They are testing your relationship and the rules. They will have tantrums if the sky is not the right shade of blue. Just decide on your rules and your plan for discipline, then prepare to get very Zen.
It does pass. I also note my kids are more likely to attempt to be rude to family than to strangers, which means they are in fact learning something.

Mine is starting to test the lines and being a bit of a brat, but I am teaching her not to behave that way so she will learn how to behave in public. My friends baby is the same age and he is doing the same thing.

Terrible twos are only bad if you let them be. Of course, every child has their moments but its up to the parent to put their foot down. If the parent is letting them get away with it now, its only gonna get sooo much worse.

Every baby is different. My first didn't have "Terrible Twos". My second had "Terrible Threes". It just depends on the child, and how you raise them.
