my 2.5 year was always more difficult than my other kids. She was a colicky newborn, and then a kvetchy baby, which turned into a needy attached toddler.
While she is obviously adorable , her meltdowns and outbursts over the dumbest things have gotten out of control. This morning it was because she was torturing her 4 year old sister, by grabbing her markers, so I calmly took the markers away from her...and she was screeching for 35 minutes, no joke.
she fights with me about everything. from food, clothing, walking vs. stroller, what we are doing then. and I give her 2 choices about everything. she is so fiercely independent, if the thought or idea didn't come into her mind first she will fight about it.
is this normal 2 year old behavior? I never experienced this with my other kids. I am starting to get nervous.
on the other hand, she speaks really really nicely, better than my other kids at this age, and only saves this behavior for me. my babysitter says shes a dream to watch.

Yes it's normal behavior that makes mom feel not normal😄.
I have some toddlers like that, and some are with a more pleasant nature! 😄😝
Can you send her to a daycare/babysitter for a few hours a day?
Btw I think we need to create a support group for moms with such natured children!

Sounds very familiar. I've mentioned it on other threads, but my almost-3 y/o is very similar, but I've noticed that his behavior becomes very trying when his stomach is bothering him. He bothers his brother, says NO to EVERYTHING. Usually as soon as his stomach empties he is back to being his cute adorable self. You mentioned that she was a colicky baby, could be that she still has a sensitive stomach and that discomfort is making her crabby.
