I think that is why she has me for a mother because I am not at all charmed and harp on her constantly for this behavior. My husband found it cute (when she was 2 or 3), but I convinced him early on it was unacceptable. It is wholly manipulative, and he is her prime target.<br /><br />Now, if she tried that on her brothers, I might let it pass, but she prefers to cry to get her way with them.<br /><br />I know families with all boys, and I am grateful to have girls for the slightly calming aspect they bring to a household. But THIS sort of issue, I could do without.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14591234069872271083noreply@blogger.com
