And so ends a shite day.

[dissle]

With a smack in the mouth.

Think i hate my child...today

1. Dobber marble...smacking aginst bedroom wall...numerous huge dents in plaster now.

2. throwing stuff at his bedroom window

3. granny died at 2pm

4. Cadbury anounced closing of 6 factories..how will this affect me as an addicted consumer

5. dentist says got a hole in wisdom tooth, out next week. Got raging tooth and gum ache.

6. kid fell off WARDROBE onto bunk bed which he had totally stripped to wooden slats with cousin.

7. been kicked, punched,slapped and just now on reading book to it, smacked me in the mouth.

Could you get away from him for a while??? You both need a break.

well, he is asleep now. on a/bs for chest infection and for some reason his behaviour is bllody awful when he is ill.

me, gotta get every thing ready for work and pre school tomorow.........then bed..hoorah!

But what about Cadbury.........what do you know

yes, sorry...obviously my mini beast didnt CAUSE my granny to be dead, it was stoppage of the heart that did that! Sorry, didnt explain that one very well....

do you think it could be something in the meds hes on when hes ill? Is it sugar free?

nah, dads mum...thanks. was for the best.

just illistrating my very very bad day.

feeling sorry thats all.

behaviour always always bad, just a much worse degree of bad when ill.

dont know about medies. Nothing makes much difference. Am tired with it all.

Do you have a room that your son can be sent to each time he is naughty??

my son is awful if he has sweetners, which is in everything. Worth the effort if you can try it for a couple of weeks.

Poor you

he would LIVE in it.

naughty step good though.
hates that.

sweetners, will think carefully about that you know. it makes very good sense to me.

My good friends are foster carers and they do not have the choices that we have. They cannot smack or have any contact with the children (literally).

Their choice of punishment is to take away, each time, tv, toys, everything, until the child is left sitting in a room empty except for a bed and a wardrobe/chest of drawers. If the child still insists on being horrible, they take the lot out and leave a matress with sheet & pillow/duvet. Of course they have no control and the kids can walk out of the house at any time (did you know that).

I can really understand this and recently I have been threatening to put DS Power Rangers toys in the bin. I have never actually said that I will ( as I would HAVE TO DO IT) but that I am thinking about it.
