Can I Possibly Be Spoiling Her?

Rebekah is getting very opinionated. She knows what she wants and likes and is very content when she has it. But if I don't give it to her...she throws a fit. Hmmm...isn't it a little early for temper tantrums? I can't decide if it is best to just let her have what she wants within reason and thus teach her to be confident in her feelings or to not give her what she wants. My gut goes with the first way. I think the second way shows her that Ryan and I are in charge. What good does that do really at 6 months? Looking down the road...I would rather her not drink alcohol because we've taught her true principles and she doesn't want to rather than because we told her not to. I think I need to read a book on parenting! AGAIN!
