Why my kid is crying

[seamonster]

What's causing meltdowns this week?

[seamonster]

Mommy is taking too long to make breakfast. It should be ready the moment she pulls out the pot. Also I need to consume her breakfast even though I've devoured mine and threw half it on the floor and she's eating the identical thing. Big person bowl is where it's at.

Bahahaha DD had a meltdown because I took too long to make her peanut butter and jelly. Like seriously. It takes 30 seconds and that was way too long. To be fair, she was also pretty tired.

[dmorgendorffer]

Oh the meltdowns....

1. Mommy wont let me play with a pen.
2. Mommy wont let me run down the sidewalk into the street.
3. Mommy is trying to feed me leftovers for dinner and even though I loved this meal when we had it on Sunday I refuse to eat a single bite now.
4. Mommy is not letting me stick my hands in my own poop while she changes my diaper.
5. Mommy will not let me play on the stairs.

Last night DH and I attempted to play a round of the card game Skipbo after dinner and DD absolutely lost her mind that we were doing something that diverted our attention from her.

Also because food is taking too long to get into her mouth and when we won't let her open mouth kiss the dogs.

[mmarie]

Oh and the diaper changes. The last month or so, even us grabbing a diaper and the wipes causes a meltdown.

[2mrsks (mrs&mrsk)]

Because he can't open the same drawer he's never allowed to open and take out wires
Because I can't hold him 24/7
Because he can't touch the wii
Because I told the dog to stop scratching me

[mishka29]

Because I won't let her throw all the Tupperware all on the floor and climb into the drawer

Right now...bc she has a fever

[seamonster]

Because mommy had to run an errand after bedtime. Cue waking up 5 minutes after she leaves and screaming.

Daddy is driving and Mommy is in the backseat.


Cannot play with the nightlight in the dark.

The washer was started without him.

A parent left the room.

[Deleted]

Daddy won't let her eat of the floor after breakfast. Totally warrants a meltdown.

[dreemkin]

Because she's too impatient to get undressed before getting in the bath tub.

Because I keep her away from the stairs.

[agm04]

This thread is cracking me up.

Because I put her down when she reaches for the ground.
Because I won't let her touch the raw chicken during dinner prep.
Because I turn my back to her for .2 seconds.
Because I mention needing to put her down so I can have both hands.

[seamonster]

Because I won't let him scale the bookcase

Because I won't let him play with the toilet brush

Because I won't let him play with and eat the diaper rash cream

[kartish]

Because Momma won't let me drive my scooter down the stairs.

Because momma is coming and not holding me.

Because visiting with cousins might lead to mom going elsewhere, so I must cry and hold on super tight to her neck.

Right now, because he has ear infections, is overtired and is fighting a nap. All tear worthy things.

[dmorgendorffer]

kartish hope he's feeling better soon and can resume having meltdowns only for things that are really not tear worthy.

Is the fever from the shots or is it just bad timing?

I'm not sure anymore. Seemed like it was the vax at first but it lasted a few days plus a super runny nose and cough. Who knows! Luckily my mom came to watch her for 2 days so that was great.

Why is the toilet brush so fascinating? DS has found it three different places.

[seamonster]

Because I took away my glasses he broke and wouldn't let him play with daddy's glasses

Changed his diaper and clothes after a blowout

I wouldn't hand him a knife
