Feeling like I failed as a parent ugh.

My 5 1/2 year old has been PUSHING the limits lately and I don’t know if I’m a bad parent that is why or if this is normal 5 year old behavior but man I am losing it. Seriously the hardest age yet.

She doesn’t want to take a bath, doesn’t want to wear THAT shirt, doesn’t want to do her hair, sleep in her own bed or brush her teeth, doesn’t want what I cooked for dinner. It’s SO much whining and fit throwing and I just can’t do it anymore. She is great at school, she is great at friends houses she is great at Nana and Papas… she’s is great with everyone except for us and I don’t know why. I dont want to punish her for having feelings but sometimes it’s INSANE the fit or the whines is constant as soon as we are alone. I don’t know what to do and I feel like a failure. I just want my kid to listen to me😭
