Had to take DS (nearly 3) with me to the supermarket this morning as DH had a important meeting so couldn't look after him like he usually does. At the realisation daddy wasn't coming with us DS decided to turn into a demon child who would do nothing but scream and cry the whole journey there. Once we got there, he doubled up his efforts when I tried to get him to sit in the trolley and wriggle, cling and try and climb all over me to escape my efforts. I gave up at this point and then had a massive battle to get him back in the car seat while everyone walking past was giving me filthy looks (presumably because it looked like I was being extremely forceful) and having a bit of a cry myself. Please tell me I'm not alone and this has happened to someone else! Felt like an awful mum all day
