How is it that Olive can be so sweet one moment, and then the next she is a terror? Her new thing is to throw her toys or worse - hit me. It's not like she is in the middle of a tantrum either. She is usually playing sweetly and then all of a sudden - WHOMP. She draws her arm back and smacks the side of my head. And more importantly, how is it possible that a 2 year old can actually inflict pain? I'm telling you - it hurts! I'm struggling with how to handle this new behavior. I'm not sure if time-outs really work and reasoning is out of the question. Is it really just the terrible two's causing these outbursts - or is it more than that? If anyone has any advice or suggestions - I'm all ears!
