All good advice.

I have 2 and 4 yr old boys and I do a lot of explaining about consequences prior to the event, to prevent repeat offenses.

Keeping it low key is a must, as are the consequences of her actions. You must always follow through with whatever you decide too.

On the amount of food front, dont stress at all. Kids tend to flow in cycles, they eat heaps, they eat nothing and then they graze all day.

They wont let themselves starve and so long as your daughter is being offered a good healthy range of food when she is hungry...you have no worries at all.

The terrible twos are kinda fun in a way, two year olds are sooo cute and sooo frustrating. Gotta love the road to independence.
