Sorry I really need to vent!!!
Since the schools have been off my 7 year old boy has been a nightmare!!!
I get this is a huge thing for them, uncertain times and not seeing there friends so I’m trying my best. I’m also a key worker and work full time so I suppose I’m struggling a bit too.
He’s always full of energy he goes walking everyday with me or his dad who I’m separated from since he was 3. We have a good system working and he sees us both equally but when he comes to me he’s always exhausted and plays up big time!
I’m always trying to bargain with him it’s a joke. Tonight he crossed the line big time. We played a few games of cards and afterwards I said it was time for bed and that was it!!! World war 3 on acid!!!!
He was throwing pillows and his covers down the stairs, hitting me with a nerf gun then the final straw he threw his mattress off a bunk bed may I add on the floor!! My other half his step dad came to help me put it back. He was rolling on it and being a mare!!
So my oh broke a toy he had bought him then took the toy away. That was it all tears and it took me soo long to settle him.
I feel so drained and upset as this is unlike him. He does like to push boundaries a lot but tonight was awful it’s like I’m loosing control!!! Does anyone else have the same issues. I’m starting to wonder if it’s just him missing his routine!! He’s now sound asleep like nothings happened. Fml
