Least Sympathetic Protest award

Junie has very definitely entered the "no" stage - automatic objection to many activities - and sometimes it's hard to blame her. I wouldn't be thrilled if someone picked me up and took my pants off either. But the new thing where she cries and yells "no potty" in the morning when *I* have to pee? Yes, I get that it's all part of figuring out what she can control and what she can't, but seriously, kid, that's like minus a hundred points in the art of battle-picking. Gah.

The automatic 'no' is best when they then go "oh wait, I _do_ want that". Wishing you patience! Just remember to pick your battles for sanity's sake.

yeah Lirael has entered this phase too. And Hobsons choice is not working for us anymore. every morning is a fight to get her dressed.
