I have 3 boys aged 3, 4 & 5. I don't know what I'm asking here apart from does it get easier? Is it always this hard when they are at the ages/stages. My house just now I feel is constant chaos. Few and far between are nice moments where they play or even just sit nicely beside each other. They constantly fight and annoy each other and don't listen to a thing I say. I've tried all different tactics to get them to listen and be kind but I'm going round in circles. I've read loads of books but I'm getting nowhere. I would love to be able to just speak to them and for them to listen, even just sometimes. Inevitably though it ends with me shouting (which I hate) as this is the only way that they hear me and actually pay attention. There must be an easier way. I'm losing the will.
