Hi everyone,

Christmas was supposed to be a great time with my partner off work, but it seems the last week or so have just been a constant stress. My son's behaviour has just got awful too. Its a massive struggle to get his shoes on when we need to go out and when we are out, he just constantly wants to get out of the buggy and run around, and generally ignoring any instruction we give him.
My partner dosnt cope with my sons bad behaviour well, he just stresses out and gives up, walking out of the room or gives in to his demands. I tell him he is spoiling him, he disagrees.
My partner works monday to friday so its just normally me and my little boy, he plays up sometimes but i can cope. But when we are both around, at the weekend, he plays up, and things get so tense between me and my partner, our son must sense it.
Things arent great with my partner at the moment and I think the way we react to our son is affected by our feelings for each other, constant conflict.
Im close to tears writing this post as I dont want my son's behaviour to get out of control
