Distract, distract, distract. At this age it can be really hard. I get frustrated with my one year old because she's always doing stuff that I say no to. So I have to get up grab her and move her to somwhere that she can be and giver her something to do and/or play with that I'm okay with her playing with. Don't give in to the temper tantrums. That makes things worse and teaches your child that temper tantrums will get him or her what he or she wants.
This Acticle might help too.

..If You Build It..
I don't have any kids but I've helped raise my little brother since I was 5, as well as three little male cousins, and baby sat every type of kid imaginable. Whenever I got one that didn't wanna listen and did what you're describing it was almost always a boy with the exception of one little girl. The best thing I found was, if he screams.. ignore him. Kinda like the bully thing. They are only gonna do it if they can see it's getting to you. If he does something you said no to, move him. If he goes back, move him again. After a while he'll figure it out. Maybe also a light tap on the butt. Nothing to hurt physically. Just enough to hurt their feelings.
Hope it helps. <3
..They Will Come..

I'd suggest getting some sort of a baby carrier for your newborn (a real one, not a Snugli, you can PM me for recommendations if you want, but I won't spam here) so you can keep your hands free to take care of your two year old. It's the only way I can deal with both my children. ^.~

I agree with Jenannen if you let your kid call all the shots now, they will just plainly walk all over ya.
I have watched Nanny 911 and all these self help Reality Shows. (not sure if this counts) But, I heard that these methods do work.
Yeah they will say, "I hate you." and they might say, slanderous things while they are in their room crying and throwing a tantrum. But they will realize that their behavior will not be tolerated. In the State of Minnesota, Punishing our kids as such method of locking them in their rooms is considered Child Abuse rolleyes .
So where ever you are. I say do what you need to do in the confines of the law, and believe me. My baby Cousins are now respectful human beings in school, and they act like angels when they are told to behave. mrgreen
Don't expect wonders in days, weeks or months. ^^ This isn't a Ceaser Mallan show, and this is certainly not Discover Health

I live with my neice, shes two, and shes nuts! lol her mother wont make her mind so she just runs the house, me and my mom are the only ones who make her mind but then her mom just over looks what we do and lets the child run freely, i think if it wasnt for her the girl wouldnt be that crazy. but she does scream at us, and back talk us and every now and then she cusses at us. the only thing ive seen that works on a crazy two year old is being very strickt and giving them alot of attention.

i have the same problem with my two yr. old....but, when i had enough of him telling me "no" or just not listening to me...i tell him "to go to his room and stay there till he can be nice to me and everyone else" sometimes it works the other times i have to spak him on his bottom and put him on timeout. lately he hasn't been so rude. maybe, you should try my method....if you like. but do firm, don't let up....once you do he would listen again too you. tell your parnets to help you out...don't point fingers. they will feel like your attacking them. talk to them nicely and ask for their help.
