 | I don't mean to sound ungrateful that he loves me so, but I am about to snap!! He does NOTHING by himself....."mom look, mom watch, mom help"! He goes to preschool 4 hours a day, and the few hours he is home is grueling!! This is constant! every minute he is around me, and around neighbor children or whomever!!! He actually "scopes out" someone who is attentive and hangs on them where ever we go...while I have to "watch" of course. My best friend tells me I was "too attentive" and "affectionate" when he was a baby, but c'mon, aren't we all? His teacher says he is, "yanking my chain" for a reaction..I'm about to snap. I take one on one out for him, but the more I do the MORE he wants...he has always been this way. He can't even play with other children without telling me all about it, or asking me to watch. He has a one yr old sister too. But, he's always been this way. He cannot go more than a minute w/out calling on me!!?? Daddy is a relief when he is home let me tell you!!! He is just as clingy w/ him! I am about to have a break down and need some serious advice? Please help us before I snap!? I am a stay home mom. Don't go anywhere much, but he asks "can I go"? I don't give in to all of this. We have scheduled time together, reading etc...this seems like demanding control to me? But I don't want to seem like a "hard ass" either? But the more I give in to him, the more he want, can someone help?????!!!!! |
