Just Kidding<BR/><BR/>What's that book: don't sweat the small stuff? if a certain cup makes her happy, give in, etc...<BR/><BR/>I learned the hard way with Amelia that pushing back against that will too much can be devasting to a child. She went through a stage where she lost self-confidence and thought she couldn't do anything right because Daddy tried to correct "unacceptable behavior" too much. Mostly she was acting like a 3 year old probably should. <BR/><BR/>I was the strong-willed child and butted heads with Mom (as strong-willed as they come--in a good way) as a result.
