Toddlers
Since there is a recent thread about teenagers, I thought I'd bring up another troublesome age category...TODDLERS.
Today my 2.5 year old wanted to wear her jacket while at the same time passionately did not want to wear her jacket!
Need I say more? Those who have had toddlers will understand.

Re: Toddlers
My daughter is 19 months and seems to have just entered that terrible twos phase. I was a little worried the first time I saw Poppy throw herself to the floor and start screaming. My wife assures me though it's just a normal phase. Even so, it's not particularly a phase I'm enjoying.

Just wait another 2-3 years. You'll look back fondly on the younger years and realise just how easy they were.

I'm desperately trying to convince SmallChog (3) that she doesn't need to be 8 inches away from me at all times. I feel like she's judging me for my parenting choices...

Re: Toddlers
Well, if anything this thread and the teenagers thread are acting as a highly effective contraceptive method for currently childless (childfree?) couples

Re: Toddlers
In all seriousness though, it is for me a totally worthwhile and rewarding experience, just doesn't feel like it every minute 😄
And it is not for everyone. I think society often pressures people into having children when perhaps they shouldn't. It really does change your life. Even people who have children get pressured to have more. We have decided to only have one, and you can't believe how some react to that. Won't she be lonely? Won't she be spoiled? What happens when you die with no sibling for her etc....I think ironically we probably had less pressure about children when we had none, now that I think about it!

Re: Toddlers
Kids are an excellent contraceptive for all couples, especially those who already have them. Can't get a moment alone with my wife before it is very late at night. Video games only keep them occupied for so long before they try to burst into your bedroom to tell you how they defeated the troll.

Re: Toddlers
I remember my now 4 year old screaming and crying at me because I wouldn't let her eat my deodorant.
