My kids are 3 and 6 and started recently seeing their father in an unsupervised contact setting. This is no doubt a period of change but the change in behaviour has been drastic.
Cheekiness, talking back to me, imitating my voice, tantrums, uncooperativeness, slamming doors, anger, hitting... all at a raised level for this last period since their father has been taking them for unsupervised mornings/afternoons. I will mention it to my solicitor but this thread is mainly to do with handling this negative behaviour in a way that doesn't just add to the stress for me.
Basically it's parenting advice I'd like here. Got things coming at me from all angles at the moment and am losing my cool! (And possibly forgetting the basics of parenting)
