We have been blessed with a very stubborn, strong-willed 3 year old. Today we were all stuck in the house all day together and it was one of those days that nothing goes right. He cries because he is hungry, he cries because he doesn't like the food you want him to eat, he cries because his underwear are "funny", he cries because he wants to go outside, he cries because he doesn't like the clothes you have picked for him to wear outside.....and on and on. Oh my goodness! Please tell me that it is jet lag, or that he is hungry or just tired, or that it is just his age! Please don't tell me that he is just a Brat! Time outs didn't work, spankings didn't work, trying to ignore his little tantrums didn't work.....Calgon take me away!
Then there is another whole issue. Have you ever said that you would never do something, only to find yourself in the very same situation eating your words? Well, somewhere along the way, we brought Caleb in our bed to sleep with us, and he has been there ever since. I could give you a bunch of excuses as to why he is there, but I won't. What I do know is that we need to get him out before we all go crazy! I have some ideas from watching nanny 911 and that, but I have this stubborn 3 year old in my bed, what do I do? Any wisdom or insight that anyone could share would be most appreciated!!!! He does have his own room now and his own big boy bed, I just need some wisdom on how to get him to sleep in it and stay in it. Help........
