Aghhhhhhh

Two yellow cards
one bumped head
one fight
x amount of being rude
x amount of I didn't do it
x amount I'll smash my computer up
x amount of banging his bed by lifting it and dropping it on the floor. ( that's still going)
x amount of rule stating
x amount of shouting
and one red card

one glass of wine on order ready for dc's bed time
one stodgey pudding waiting to finish cooking



who'd mix a teen and a pre teen with issues together.

One world war three!

And breathe!

Hey.. Were do you think I get arsenic from :o

it has just come down after the constant banging of the bed and annouced it's calm!

Ha haaa I laugh in the face of that comment.. Told him to try again .. See if you can not bang for ten minutes mate.
Few door slams and the bed is going again.. I feel a yo yo moment happening.

However life is going on around it all.. Dd is getting on nicely. Dh is watching friend and I'm on here whist pud finishes off ( bad timing on that one doh!)

Okay we are in shut down and non verbal.. And that means we're on our way out of it.
One super soft blanket wrapped tightly round and not readyfor rocking with mum yet.

( hand signals really are a bonus)

actually i kind of hope that by logging it on here for others to read.. It might show that you can ride these moments in a calm and firm way.. And it really is okay when you know the routine of your own dc.

This has been totally about being overwhelmed and stressed.. and not at the point of being able to help himself.
And we are all now just sat on the sofa .. With the lights dimmed and all will be okay. ( until tonight when he'll have night terrors and need lots of settling)..
