My 4 year old DS is driving me nuts. His behaviour has suddenly changed. He was always the angel child but has suddenly turned into a demon! To make matters worse, my soon to be two year old, copies everything he does.
Every minute of the day he asks how long till the cookoo (we have a cookoo clock). I can deal with this especially as he's actually learning to tell the time from it.
His hands are constantly down his underpants fiddling. He's on occasion whipped it out in public thinking its hilarious. I've tried every wat of dealing with it.
He will do naughty things knowing his brother copies, revelling in him getting told off.
He has started to whimper all day long. Cry at stupid little things like not getting the correct type of biscuit. On top of the whimpering he'll go on to ask for cuddles, which on the outside seems really lovely but in reality he's only doing it after being naughty and trying to get around me.
He had finally got used to going swimming and actually enjoys it yet recently has gone backwards crying throughout the lesson. I hate sending him like that, not least because he is getting nothing out of it!
This is ALL day long. He has two younger brothers I also have to see to. I know he is probably demanding my attention and I really do try to spread myself between the three of them. The hands down the trousers thing and the insane whimpering are the two that grate at me the most. Please help, I'm losing the plot.
