I blame her father

[welshboris]

Im not sure if this is a daft question or nor?

My 17 month DD has helluva temper on her, and Im sure she has got it from her dad. Is that possible? Can traits be passed down?

I always hear "oh shes got her mums ...... (insert random personailty trait) but thought it was an old wives tale??

[Twiglett]

sounds like a toddler to me .. it depends how you deal with it that will set her personality trait

yes she may be a bit more demonstrative or loud or volatile .. but if you deal with it by screeching back you'll set behaviour patterns

that's what I think anyway

[welshboris]

Oh no I dont screech back, I dont shout at her either dont believe in it, solves nothing


An example, yesterday she was behind the chair where she thought I couldnt see her trying to put her hat on. Because she couldnt do it, she went mad and tried to bite the hat


This is just normal toddler behaviour?

[Twiglett]

yes normal

[welshboris]

Great.


Ive got years of this havent I?

[welshboris]

She makes me laugh though, its really hard to keep a straight face when shes running towards me pointing and saying "NO meemee" (Im meemee apprantly)


Shes a little ball of fire, all 2 feet of her!!
