DS1 has been pretty good this week. I think a mixture of him being better and me coping much better when he was being challenging. Yesterday he went out on his own with his Dad for the day and today we have been pottering about the house and all has been fine.
He asked for some chocolate at 4 o'clock and I said we would see after tea. This had to be repeated a few times as he kept saying he wanted some. He then removed the batteries from the remote control (Charlie and the chocolate factory was on which was why he wanted chocolate) and then threw it in the bin. DH sent him out and then he went to his room and wrecked it. This went on for a while with things getting thrown and books torn.
We have talked and there isn't anything he has said which can explain his behaviour and the speed in which his mood changes.
I am not completely down hearted. I will remember that I can do this and as long as I stay calm we will be fine. I felt a bit more today that he would do as I asked and that it was okay to be in charge.
Am I right in thinking this is probably okay that we will have some blips and to just start afresh tomorrow?
He has no books or toys in his room now as I don't want anything else wrecked.
