Pondering if you'd be interested in a trade....
I did try crate training and it was a HUGE success.... till she realised she climb.


Oh no kidding about busy... she is ALL over the place. Emptying cupboards and drawers, pressing buttons on things, sticky finger prints in places I didn't even imagine she could REACH and I thought it was 2year olds that threw tantrums! If she can't move something, reach something or I tell her no the whole street knows about!!! Taking her out in her stroller used to work but now she's worked out how to GET OUT OF IT!

I do love this stage she's in but omgosh.... talk about hard work!

Can the 16y.o clean up after herself and can she cook her own meals? I might be tempted... unless she's stroppy and stomps around.
