I have a increasing problem with one little boy (31months)
His behaviour with me if generally good, challenging but manageable as he knows my boundaries and what does/doesnt go!
The problem comes when he is collected by Mum, and its getting so bad Im worried there will be an accident soon.
She collects him en route to pick her other child up from school so its generally a doorstep handover. I do a diary to inform of what we have done, meals, snacks etc so generally its just a case of "yes he played nicely" or "hes not been well behaved"etc etc.
The last few weeks once he has gone out of my door and been with his Mum on my drive he has;
Climbed onto rockery stones at the front of my house (never attempts to with me)
Ran straight across the road onto a neighbours drive.
Climbed into his Mums car through an open window and proceeded to then get onto the roof!
This week he ran down the road (with Mum in hot pursuit) after a dog on a lead which did turn and try to bite him.
His behaviour at home is generally bad/challenging but they dont seem to have any sort of management/consequences for him, and "pander" to him.
Mum has said she feels hes punishing her for working and she only stopped breastfeeding him about 5 months ago.
I try to make handover quick and encourage her to get him in the car, but she seems to linger.
Ive tried asking her in but that then led to bad behaviour in my home and her running way over time because he wouldnt leave!
Im not only worried for him but also if Im honest for myself!
Where would I stand if he had an accident??
