YES!! I completely relate to this ... DD3 is always trying to boss me around. Drives me nuts! I try not to give in because I feel like she'll think she can talk to me like that ("Mom, get my toys. Mom, stop. Mom, come here. Mom, mom mom. . . ) But on the other hand, it's such a battle all day to struggle against it.
Mix the bossiness with an overly-sensitive personality anyway and it's like playing with dynamite. I never know when she's going to go off, which is often. I can say the most benign comment, like "Let's go wash our hands" and it turns into an instant battle. If it's not DD's idea, it's a bad idea in her head and she will fight against it.
I'm desperately hoping DD10mo will not be this volatile when she's 3yo!
