My 8 year old DS wants to take over from Mr Ghaddafi I think. And I've bloody well had enough. I can't take anymore of his behaviour, demands, tantrums, bullying of siblings, complaining that his life is rubbish and that I'm the meanest Mummy he's ever had(?)
I've just told him he's not going to his friend's house tomorrow. There's going to be an almighty scene when he remembers in the morning. Especially as younger sis will still be going, to play with DS' friend's sister. But he's not going. The rudeness and disobedience I've had today have exceeded even his impressive levels.
Are some kids just like this? Please tell me I'm not alone. I believe that I'm firm, fair, and consistent, I have not shouted (much) or smacked, and I follow through with consequences. So why does he still fight me all the way on every little thing?
aarrrrgggghhhh!!!!!!
