    Text - 5 hours ago edited 5 hours ago justhereforjustno 1.5k points I wouldn't let her put crayons in my ear Full-on dropping to the ground, wailing and sobbing like l'd killed our cat in front of her. I would tell her we don't put stuff in our ears, which would make her sob louder. Thankfully she's a young toddler and easily distracted, so it only lasted a few minutes.

    Text - 6 hours ago Empty_Insight 7.6k points So my daughter and I were getting ice cream from a drive-thru. All of a sudden, she starts crying hysterically about how she doesn't want to be "long." I'm trying to figure out what she's talking about, so I ask her what she means by long, and she points at her feet. I don't get it, and she starts throwing a fit because she doesn't want to be long. It clicks, and I ask her "You mean long like me and Mommy?" and she says "Yeah, I like being little!" Sh

    Text - Tassidar 3.0k points 5 hours ago Elevators... My kid thinks people get on them to die! I have shown her that it's okay, even ridden one up and down with her (while she screamed the entire time). I just don't get it. She yells at people not to get on the elevator! Screeches and is terrified if someone she loves gets on one... Reply Share Report Save Give Award

    Text - 6 hours ago Letouristeperdu 12.1k points My sister is a foster mom and provides a wonderful home for her children. One day the social worker came for her monthly visit and the child just had a complete melt down. I want Mark and Brandy! I want Mark and Brandy! The social worker asked if the child asks for their biological parents often...no you see. Mark and Brandy are the names of the two cows down the street. We go see them on our walks.

    Text - InannasPocket 7.6k points 8 hours ago Her paintbrush wasn't green. Mind you, there was a green paintbrush available within reach, but the fact that the one in her hand wasn't green was a problem, and "I can't make this one green for you" was unacceptable. She did eventually relent and decide it was ok to just pretend the red one was green. Reply Share Report Save Give Award

    Text - 5 hours agO BrittanyBallistic 11.6k points Yesterday, our youngest son (1.5 years old) had a meltdown because I wouldn't let him pour his apple juice on the cat. I saw him start to, grabbed his cup, he just looked at me with a mixture of anger and sadness and cried "bath" for about 10 minutes. Our cat is amazing with children but even she wouldn't appreciate apple juice bath. an Reply Share Report Save Give Award

She said that she did have a glass or two and he freaked out and cried for and hour because "babies can't drink Dr. Pepper it's not healthy! Only milk!" They got him settled down and he asked if she ate Cheez-its pregnant. She said "oh,no. Babies only drink milk so I didn't eat when she was cheez-its." He cried harder because "I would have probably liked

    Text - PINKERTON 4.3k points . 5 hours ago My niece is 1 and a half. She was walking while holding a small bowl of cereal, no milk just dry cereal. A piece of cereal drops out of the bowl and hits the floor. She stops dead in her tracks, looks down at the single piece of cereal on the floor, and immediately drops the entire bowl of cereal.

    Text - ClearBunnie9.0k points 6 hours ago She just started crying and said I broke her heart. After a few times of asking and calming her down, she told me it was because I ruined her birthday. Her birthday had been like 8 months before. I tried asking her how I ruined her birthday, but those were the only two sentences she would say. Reply Share Report Save Give Award
