Missmoneypenny's children never had tantrums at all, however.
That's true; they didn't. In fact, none of my friends' have had toddlers that have thrown tantrums, but I have seen some toddlers getting very angry with their parents when I have been out and about.
Interestingly, I mentioned this subject to a teacher today and she said her own children didn't have tantrums as toddlers either. Then she came straight out and said that parents like to blame it on their toddlers by calling it the terrible twos.
Just texted my niece to see if her toddlers have tantrums and they never have either.
It seems there are many of us out there whose toddlers didn't have tantrums.RENTING? Have you checked to see that your landlord has permission from their mortgage lender to rent the property? If not, you could be thrown out with very little notice.

I ave a dodgy H, so sometimes I will sound dead common, on occasion dead stupid and rarely, pig ignorant. Sometimes I may be these things, but I will always blame it on my dodgy H.
Sorry, I'm a bit of a grumble weed today, no offence intended ... well it might be, but I'll be sorry.0 -

we had a family treat to Orlando and Magical Kingdom earlier this year!
Now that is child abuse.......much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

It seems it's much easier to blame the "terrible twos" instead of working out why your child is frustrated with your behaviour.
My mother said she thought that after having two children, and changed her mind after having 3 (-:...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
One thing that astonished me when I became a mother was just how judgmental parents are about one another. This is a good example of that (working mothers = bad mothers, for example)...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0

Orlando and Magic Kingdom is parent abuse. I can see why some parents don 't want to go there for their holiday.RENTING? Have you checked to see that your landlord has permission from their mortgage lender to rent the property? If not, you could be thrown out with very little notice.
