DS is 4.5 yr s old and has always been very well behaved...till a coulpe of months ago that is. He is brattish to the extent of actually being rude at times. There is no change in his set of friends or his surroundings. I strated working fulltime again recently. is it because of my going to work that his behaviour is going down hill? or is it just a phase? I spend quality time with him everyday and he is very well behaved with me most of the time. Am worried that my angel is growing horns. Insights needed!!

My ds started this at around 5 as well. He is now 6.5 and is getting worse! I hope it's just a phase.
