Seems like you've had it "easy" all these while. Many of us "battle" with our children everyday. Hahaha... p/s- love the shots, especially the first one!

This was a direct defiance against me, and "fighting" me.

Yes, they will start testing your boundaries (and your patience!) now, but they like knowing there are limits/boundaries, makes em feel more secure. It gets "worse" the older they get HAHA haha@hissychick's comment reg: the determined female.

I'm surprised you've got away without the dispalys of sheer defiance for this long! Rest for you, and consistency and boundaries for your little miss will do the trick. Most of the time. Like you said, you can be proud of the fact that you are raising a determined and not a subservient female leader of the future :) hissychicks last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Hissychick/~3/335501839/" rel="nofollow">Rock bottom</a> Daddee you’re tired and as Ann said, Caitlin is testing her boundaries as all threenagers do.
