My dp ( we don't live together) and I are often arguing about my ds 4.5 dicipline to the point that my confidence starting to be affected. I work full time, I attend evening classes once a week (I pay babby sitter), I teach languages at home after my son goes to bed and I find time to take him swimming and karate once a week. I also make sure he does his home work and I spend quality time with him as much as possible. I wish I could afford leave full-time work and spend more time with him but I simply can't.
My ds is very active and he seems happy with his life, he have bad time when he does not listen and I have to shout or bribe and sometimes I just want to ignore badbehaviour and don't make a bid deal about it. Overhall, I guess we are doing ok. However, my dp comments are getting me down. Readin other parents comments about their own children I came to the conclusion and relief that I am not alone in the stragle of raising children. Am I too soft?
