Ok, I never really had any trouble with my 8 Yr old...no tantrums, no Terrible Twos, or Threes for that matter...he's always been 'vocal', to say the least, but I jump on him whenever I can. However, the last couple of weeks he seems to have turned into a naughty 4 yr old...
Crushing cereal into my carpet, blatant lying, disobedience, and downright naughtiness...is this normal?! And, because I've never really had to punish him before, it's causing a lot of issues in that I'm unsure about what punishments work at this age, and he is too smart for some of them to have any effect! No naughty step at this age, let me tell you!!
