Snivelling epic rant from my 3yr old
As a parent tantrums are almost a part of daily life bringing up 6yr and 3 yr old girls.

Last week our 3yr old gave a monumental strop when we told her it was time for bed. We're talking bright red face, streaming tears, snot, that jumping up and down on the spot thing whilst screaming at the top of her lungs about how she didn't want to go to bed.

I've learnt that giving her a dose of her own medicine and yelling at her doesn't work at all. So I calmed her down enough that there was the potential to talk to one another.

"Why are you behaving like this?" I asked her.

Through short breath snotty snivels she gasped "Because I'm tired!".

I lost it and started sniggering while I said "better go to bed then!" which started her off again.

Trust me chaps, unless you're really really sure about it, don't have kids!

So your story is 'I've got kids'?
