Day 2 of quarantine and someones gotta take me to mental hospital.
I usually work outside. Now I’m quarantined and work from home with my 2.6 year old. It’s only day 2 and she’s literally driving me nuts.
I am exploding from anger and frustration because I did my best to raise her right, but somehow she’s turned into a little monster.. she didn’t get her way, and I tried to distract her with something else. Nothing helped. She took her little umbrella and started hitting the table. Took a cup of water and spilled it on the floor on purpose. I turned my back and she hit me once. I am at my wits end I can’t survive this quarantine. Aside of that, I let her cry it out. But she cries her lungs out really loud and in a deep voice. I block it but it gets to me when she cries like that for 30 minutes or longer. I don’t know how else to handle her anymore. She doesn’t listen to me unless I promise her to give her something she wants. Example: if she doesn’t get dressed, i tell her to get dressed so we can go play in the park. Or I tell her to drink some water, and I’ll give her a small piece of candy. She is spoilt but I don’t know how to fix it. Her grandparents watch her when I work, but they take care of her well. I don’t know what to do anymore I’m going crazy.
