Summary
What’s more fun than having your intense, emotional, particular child have a meltdown right in front of your entire family or church?! Have a strong-willed child who is great for one parent, but falls apart when both parents or siblings are around? You are going to experience a war within as you second guess yourself in the moment and that’s just as fun!
