Abbi was playing my guitar again last night. She started singing, and it went a little like this:
When Abbi doesn't want something, however, or if she is being denied something she does want, it sounds more like this:
Mummy... Daddy... Train... Susy-rabbit... Drawings... um... Abbi-chair...Basically, she was singing a little song featuring whatever she looked at in the living room. Mim was almost giggling.
When Abbi doesn't want something, however, or if she is being denied something she does want, it sounds more like this:
NO, no, no, no, NO, no, NO! ... Go 'way!She's trying to be the fearsome alpha, but her display of absolute outrage just makes Mim and I laugh. She'll probably desribe that to a therapist later on, but at least we're not allowing her her own way on every whim. She's even starting to accept that sometimes she can't have something and only complain moderately, instead of hurling herself to the ground and (carefully) headbutting the floor. Oh, she still does that, but not every time she's thwarted.
