Hi all,
My son's behaviour is starting to get me down. When he's behaving well he is a wonderful child - articulate, loving, funny, kind to other children etc (as many kids are).
But he is so moody, uncooperative and wilful the rest of the time that be drives me around the bend. This week is a prime example, we're on a foreign holiday staying a few steps from an idyllic beach but his behaviour has spoilt much of the break. Moods if he can't eat what he wants when he wants, moods if I don't play what he wants when, kicking, punching, pinching (only me never anyone else as far as I am aware) if he doesn't get carried, complaints of tiredness - just sitting on the floor refusing to move. It's hard to describe but in general a sense that he is very uncooperative with me in particular - but so much so that it drives me to despair and ruins what should be enjoyable days for him and for me.
Any experience of this ? Any advice?
