C.M.
I had the same day on Monday. It was so frustrating because nothing I did could stop the whining. So finally I took my son, almost 3, by the hand and sat him on his bed. I told him to have a good cry and get it all out and to come out when he was done. I closed the door behind me and went back to the kitchen. He came out a few minutes later and said he was done and came and gave me a hug. BUT we still have moments of whining daily. It's just something my kids go through especially when they can't explain what's wrong etc. I have a little stash of dark chocolate for me that I eat to get through the day. :)
