I hope it was just a bad day. I had to drag my 6 year old by the wrist walking home the other day, else she would have run off. People witnessing that probably had their own opinions. It wasn't over eating free crackers though. She threw a wobbly in the library because she choose a library card, then two minutes later wanted the other one and then proceeded with kicking and screaming tantrum when she didn't get her own way. Thankfully not too common an incident. Loved the reference to the picture in the attic. I do like Oscar Wilde.
I love Oscar Wilde too! Particularly that one!
I know, I have been there where my little one is having a wild meltdown and it's all a bit nuts and I have to be really firm. The way she was acting though didn't seem as if it was a bad day. We can but hope though!
