DP decided to stay up to 2 am playing Xbox so he's tired.
Our 2 year old keeps waking up early, he knows this. And DS is ill ATM and has a horrible cough waking him up several times a night so he came into our bed at about 3am.
Ds was fidgetting in bed and DP basically had a tantrum, starts muttering "FFS DS THIS IS PISSING ME OFF" and stuff like that and then basically argues with him. "Stop doing that FFS its annoying" "move your arm ffs DS" etc. Arguing with an ill 2 year old FFS.
He thinks I'm not disciplining DS properly because I don't shout at him, I think DP is being a wanker and he does this tantrum shit all the time.
DS behaves a lot better when it's just me, he does get told off but I speak to him like a 2 year old not a teenager I.e, count to five then timeout, distract him from naughty thing, explain we don't do that because its naughty/dangerous/not nice.
That's right isnt it? You don't whinge at toddlers and tell them they are annoying and pissing you off. (Even if they are! )
So I'm on the sofa with DS because I can't deal with dp being a moody dickhead and speaking to our son like that, its not nice to be around.
It's all the time and I'm sick of it. 2 year olds are annoying but that's life surely? They're only small so we need to teach them how to behave not argue with them as if they're adults
