Begining of TROUBLE TWO?

It's becoming very difficult to get Nathan's daily routine done, as he wants to do everything his own way. Daddy was frustrated, after fighting with Nathan for 20 minutes and not able to get Nathan to brush his teeth. And it took forever for Nathan to feed himself, so a meal usually ended with mommy feeding him -- with spoon in one hand and ruler in another.

Not sure if this is just a transition period, or how long he will outgrown this. But the battles with Nathan has cosumed too much energy of mommy and daddy, and there's no signs of winning.

Or pherhaps there's should be no battle, a two years old should be respected and take the consequence of his own decision, be it go hungry until next meal or have a smelly mouth and bad teeth?

Nah do it

Nathan has entered a stage that he will insist on doing everything himself, everything from eating to put on/off cloth. For everything his first response will be "Nah do it"
Nah is what he call himself. Here are some of the Nah do it pictures:
