Could i have a ppp. Anyone with a strong willed 3 year old?? (Or spoilt as my mum would say) my son is 3 he’s the absolute Apple of my eye but my god is he hard work. Every day is a battle and quite honestly going to work is a break for me. He’s not physically hard work (hitting etc) it’s more mentally draining I find. Its hard to even put into words what i mean so im going ro bullet point some examples ● a spider is on a leaf. My son kicks the leaf, i say no u might hurt it and he will continually kick it until I pull him away then a tantrum unfolds
● I try to get him in the car he will refuse unless he can climb over the front seats into the back and into his chair. I refuse a tantrum starts.
● he wants to feed the fish I say yes but don’t put too much in. He deliberately tips the whole pot in.
● I ask him to take off his shoes before climbing on the sofa. He will run as fast as he can to get on it and jump all over it with shoes on
● he will ask for a certain food then halfway thru me making it he will say he doesnt want it.
● We go to the park I tell him not to climb up the slide as it’s dangerous for him and other children. He will ignore me. Only way he will stop is if I completely remove him from the park. This then starts a tantrum which goes on for hours. He doesn’t walk anywhere he runs and refuses point blank to hold my hand (too big now for buggy) shopping is also something I dread.
There’s so much more I could write but I think u get the jist…mum has just had him for the day which is a rarity and I’ve just rang to find out how he’s been. She said for the millionth time he is spoilt and such hard work. Basically today portrayed everything I’ve said above. Y is he like this? And how can I sort this out?? He’s a mummys boy big time and I love him dearly but this has got to be resolved. Any advice at all is appreciated xx
