Some times bf will sit her down and say no stop being naughty, and she will cry to get her way out of it this is when bf will cuddle her and say its alright. Is this productive? Or feeding her disobedience? Reply to this Question

 As a parent myself, I know how hard it is when you tell your little one off and they start crying-of course your natural reaction is to comfort them with a cuddle!But your bf is doing his daughter no favours by not disciplining her. She needs to learn that certain behaviour is unacceptable or she's going to go into nursery and school with the impression that she can do whatever she likes and it will be a big shock for her.Have a word with your bf but be careful not to sound like you're criticising him or he'll immediatly get defensive. Ask him why he feels he can't discipline her. It's often more difficult for dads with their daughters, she's daddys little princess right?!Discipline at this age doesn't have to be much at all as children this age often don't even realise they've done anything wrong, that's why they need to be told! Just a little chat with her in words that she can understand about what she did wrong and why it's wrong is usually enough.Definitly talk to him though, it's in his daughters best interests. Good luck x
