Ds is very well behaved generally, kind , co-operative , intuitive etc!!
When he is around Dp he is a complete demon !!
he is rude , spiteful, will have a tantrum before we have even finished a sentence , hyper and rough and generally attention seeking
there is reason for this as he has had a lot of change in the past year , we have had a new baby- DD now 5 months - we have moved house and Dp is working around the clock to provide not to mention our relationship is now quite strained to say the least .
Before I fell pregnant with DD it was just the 3 of us we lived at my mums (so 4 of us ) and Dp's hours were very flexible he could pretty much come and go as he pleased and worked most days 6-2 so was with us all the time .
I really don't know how to handle his behaviour now ,like I said when it is just me him and DD he is good as gold ! but its just around Dp and sometime other men eg my dad.
we are struggling to stay consistent because we are unsure if we r doing the correct thing ?
the past 3 days he had a full blown tantrum every night I have sent him to his room for a "time out to calm down " this usually works well he will play with something and then say I am calm now and I will as ask him to come back and we hug.
the past 3 nights he has screamed hysterically for 1hour and kept coming into living room , banging on the door and walls.
I really don't know what to do now I have done the parenting puzzle but don't remember a lot of it I am going to do it again but at the moment I cant leave DD for a second as she is BF and wont take a bottle and the only PP courses are miles away
in much need of advice please ?
