Braeden drama
Tonight I about had it with Braeden.
Everything I ask him to do, he says 'No mom' or SCREAMS 'NO' at me.
Everything I do for him, he never says thank you and hardly ever participates in activities with me or WANTS to do things with me.
Everything I had planned for raising a child has gone out the window because despite his days where he is amazing and everything I thought a child could be, I find myself fighting back tears of frustration because he is so difficult to be around.
He is demanding, frustrating, deviant and definately knows how to push my buttons...the sad thing is I LET him get away with it.
Well, sorry Braeden, NOT ANYMORE.
Tonight was awful. The ride home from daycare was HELL because I wouldn't get donuts or McDonalds. He then carried that fit into the house and fought with me, physically FOUGHT with me. I sat him down, SCREAMED 'YOU ARE IN TIME OUT. DO NOT MOVE' and stormed out of the room. If I hadn't, I probably would have hit him...which is not what I want to do.
He cried, he threw things, he peed in his pants *we were doing potty training without pullups today, three accidents...oy!* and then continued to scream and cry. About 10 minutes went by and he finally stopped.
We then changed him, went upstairs and made some food, hung out and watched Toy Story.
Seriously, what is wrong with him? He's like SENSORY overload and then is fine and dandy 15 minutes later. That's not normal, is it?
Anyways, he was whining and acting up again when I told him he needed a pull up and pajamas, so I plopped him in front of me, stared RIGHT into his eyes and in a VERY stern voice *which I do VERY OFTEN and he just totally disregards what I'm doing* said 'Your friends do NOT hit their parents. They do NOT talk back. They do NOT disagree with them. You need to KNOCK IT OFF. I am SO tired of being treated this way. From now on you are doing what I say and if you don't, you will get a spanking.'
He looked right at me and didn't say a thing. He then struggled to put on his pjs, but I took charge and put the fucking things on.
He then struggled to brush his teeth, but I held him in a body lock *ridiculous, eh?* and brushed his teeth for him.
He then climbed in my bed instead of his.... and I said 'DO NOT get out of bed or you will be in trouble.'.
He's still there, watching Toy Story again. I seriously feel like this MIGHT be a breakthrough? I dunno...it NEEDS to be. I am going crazy and honestly want to give up being a parent.
I obviously am a softy or else it wouldn't be THIS bad...but come on, I do my damned best and it's so upsetting to see my child this way and treat me this way. Please folks, keep your fingers crossed and pray for me, whatever you desire.
I need a change, soon....or I seriously think I might throw in the towel. *WHATEVER the hell that means... hahaha*
