Q: I have a 3-year-old who will not listen to anything I say. I've tried everything and always end up getting both of us upset....
My son just turned 2 years old. He is a great kid, but sometimes he will get very angry at a toy if he cannot figure it out, or at his dad and me if he is told "no." He will go off spouting all sorts of things that only he understands, but I know he is clearly angry. How do I help him to avoid this, or should I ignore it?

Tip of the Day
Practice Friendliness
Show your child how to reach out to other kids by role-playing at home. Sit down with a few of her favorite stuffed animals or dolls and use them to act out social scenes. Vary the situations (birthday party, playground outing), as well as the scenarios (introducing yourself, asking if someone wants to play).
