*shakes head and laughs* Children really test their boundaries a LOT and Dylann is no different. She is just *now* getting out of a hitting/pinching/slapping phase that's lasted far too long. Instead of hitting/pinching/slapping her back or spanking her (I don't think children will learn not to hit if a parent is trying to justify hitting their own flesh and blood), I take away priviledges that I know she loves. Slowly but surely, she has caught on. Thought at times she still tries my patience BIG TIME, lol. *hugs*
