Mindee S (3 1/2) has really tried my patience today, has hit me several times, tried to hit DD as well, has had tantrums and been rather naughty. She also went down my handbag, took out my purse and all my money, cards and everything was thrown across the room. I was not amused.
H (aged 6) is sometimes in a world of his own and just wonders off and I'm constantly watching him - on way out of school he simply started following someone else in the opposite direction and at times seemed if he didn't even hear me.
J (aged 8) has been really horrible to my DD (also 3 1/2) shouting at her to shut up, calling her names (they ahve a love/hate relationship).
DS (aged 7) is copying J's attitude and I'm not happy with him - not least because he is not doing as he is told.
And whereas my DD usually is naughty or having tantrums has been simply wonderful. She's coping really well with having S here and it's so lovely to see her so happy.
Taking five children to/from school today has absolutely shattered me and I'm sick with cold/flu too!
How do you discipline your mindees? I was going to make cakes with the girls, but S was so naughty picking up things and throwing them around the room I told them taht we wouldn't make them today - too mean?
