Bring her car seat into the house and let her "play with it" Watch tv while sitting in it. She will come to associate the car seat with fun times and then when you put it back in the car she should sit in it with minimal problems.
Yes it is a hassle to take it out of the car and put it back in but it has worked for me in the past.
You can also keep certain toys in the car. These toys do not leave the car. they are there for her to play with while she is in the car. (I did this with my niece) and she loves it. We also have given her a snack in the car. Although she is 2 1/2 years old now.
Spanking is not the only form of discipline. Time-outs work just fine and aren’t any fun for the child. Bribing her won’t teach her anything but that you’re a pushover. They are Never too young to learn, children are intelligent. Start using discipline in the house and it will run over to everything else. But of all things, you’re the boss, stop bribing your child.
Sounds like you don’t know much about parenting ; Be firm, but loving.This type of behavior will not improve with time, it will get worse.Bribing is not the answer. YOU are the parent; Conduct yourself accordingly ! She is learning at an early age that she can defy you, and get away with it. GOOGLE Child Rearing. Lots of info out there ! PS. I raised 4 children, and they have all turned out to be very well adjusted. ( And I DID spank them a little bit ; Not much ).
