What the heck...
Sweet, sweet Aidan has turned into sassy, argumentative, talk-back, you're not the boss of me Aidan since school started.
Overtired? check
Older siblings? check
Mom considering taking up drinking rum and coke as an olympic sport? check, check, check!
I have never had one of my kiddos act like this ... even my teen-agers would be afraid to cross me like this.
I have tried time-outs, rewarding positive behavior, giving no attention to the negative behavior ....
His tantrums and upset know no end.
I bought him a ninja costume today for halloween and it came missing the pants (of course). It bothers me that I'll have to take it back to the store and exchange it, but he freaked out. Tears, storming around the house, going outside to directly disobey my edict that he be home now .... then all out tantrum over the unfairness of life. "It's no fair. I hate my life. <sob> It's almost Halloween."
sigh.
hold me.
