Regarding reverse answering:
It is common as children want to feel in control and are not capable of understanding your emotions/difficulties.
It would be helpful to be firm and consistent with your instructions to the child. Also making slight changes in communication would be helpful. Encourage good behaviour and say "No" to bad behaviour. Abstain from giving long explanation.
Best wishes.
