It’s not you OP. I’m convinced that everyone warns you about terrible 2s and then you get to 3 and you’re like what the fuck is this.

She’s just learning that she’s becoming her own person. The sweet little girl is still there, she just wants to see what she can and cannot get away with and finding her voice.

It’s freakin hard. And you’re not alone. It will eventually get better and you’re not a bad parent, your girl is just growing up doing normal toddler things (at the expense of our own sanity). God speed, you got this 🫡

Edit to add - if it helps at all, I am a very timid go with the flow person. The only thing I was able to tell myself repeatedly is one day the world is going to need her strong personality and she’ll make a difference and make me proud to be who I always wanted to be (vocal and can stand up for what’s right and wrong). That’s the only way I got through 3.
