How to control and discipline my toddlers

Question

Ahhh! I'm going nuts with my two toddlers (ages 2 and 3)! They whine so much and rarely follow verbal instructions (the younger one is worse). I try to tell them to use their words, or show me what they want- that I can't understand them when they're whining and crying.

When I tell them to get down from a chair, go to time out, or to bed; I have to physically pick them up and make them! This is getting really hard on me because I have back problems. I'm living overseas where the medical care is not good (man I need a chiropractor!), so I have a short fuse with the pain I'm in. When I do lift them, they fight, kick, squirm, and/or stiffen up. What can I do???

Unfortunately for your back they are 2 and 3, and at that age they rarely listen and psychically taking them to the time out area is the only way right now, eventually they will get it BUT will they listen each time after nope sometimes I have to take my daughter to her room and she is 6!  Things will get a bit easier in a few years just right now you have to stick to your guns and take them..

I must admit, it is hard work. Maybe if there playing with something they shouldn't, tell them to go find your cat (if you have one) or something like that. Dont give them any treats if they're naughty. Maybe tell them "you wont get any ice cream if your not good" or something. Maybe if they want some food, or have wet themselves, check. Get something out the fridge and hand it to them, if they carry on crying they obviously dont want it. Maybe hand them the keys or something, it will keep them occupied for a little while. Maybe if you have a husband, or some friends, get a babysitter! You need time to yourself aswell.

Keep pushing and stand your ground constantly. They'll get the hang of it. Especially the younger one. Once the older child follows, the baby will too. You're doing great! It's exhausting, but just keep doing what you're doing.
