If she wanted to shut the door she will throw a tantrum for upwards of 15 minutes.

It started a few weeks ago - maybe around 2 years 9 months. It used to trigger a tear fest but we tell her "you don't need to cry, just say nicely "mama I want to do ____ myself please" and that has helped so much. We have also been explaining that some things she can't do herself or that we need to do them togethe </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-insist-on-doing-everything-all-by-myself#post-1866621 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 15:42:11 +0000 mrbee 1866621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't quite remember when this started, but now *everything* has to be done "all by myself" for both kids. If I accidentally do something that they wanted to do, I hear about it for the next minute or so!</p> <p>Does your LO insist on doing everything "all by myself"? </p>
