Tough love/abuse
My daughter is now two years old and she's constantly very physically and verbally abusive towards me. I thought maybe it was the fact that we are watching Family Guy and the way Stewie treats Louis but I stopped watching that with her. She's still very very mean. I was thinking about it today and I realized everyone treats me kind of like that, so that's why she thinks it's okay! That's gotta be one of the most painful feelings in the world to feel unappreciated and unloved. I've been waiting over 2 years to hear "mommy I love you " and all I hear is mommy no no no no then I get punched, bit or kicked, when all I said was "I love you". Tough love is all I have ever gotten my whole life, when all I give out is unconditional love because I know what it feels like not to be loved.

That's horrible I hear what your saying my daughter she's 3 almost 4 and yeah she kisses me cuddles me and says she loves me I wish your daughter would say that to you . you never know maybe one day she will and TV shows like that that's a huge no no to watch while children are around only watch movies or shows that are appropriate for children cause children are like sponges they copy anything they see or hear but its also the child's personality my daughter is a huge hand full very hypo active I can't keep up at times she's very rude mean selfish always thinks about herself as kids do but this is every second and wanting food like crazy and her attitude is out of control each child is different acts differently or can act the same as other children you have to set rules and discipline as well and have a routine with them if she doesn't say love you to you don't force it upon her some children don't know how to express there frustration or there mood and they take it out on anyone or there toys also teach your child about caring and loving I pick up my daughters baby doll and say look cuddle baby awww there there you try it hold baby cuddle baby be gentle put baby to bed or anything like that best of luck and hope things go well for you

That sounds awful, and like you could really use some help with both parenting and your own troubles. Do you have any resources available where you live? Anyone to ask for advice on how to handle your daughter's behaviour, professional or at least experienced? It also sounds like you might find it useful to work on your boundaries - did you see the self-help guide on this issue on here?
