 | I HAVE A 3 YR OLD WHO IS VERY ACTIVE LIKE MOST KIDS. WHAT MAKES STAND OUT FROM OTHERS ARE, HE REFUSES TO LISTEN TO ME, KNOW MATTER WHAT I SAY TO HIM. I AM GETTING VERY WORRIED THAT HE WILL DO SOMETHING DANGEROUS AND WILL NOT STOP WHEN I AM TELLING HIM TO. I HAVE TO HOLD HIS FACE WITH BOTH OF MY HANDS AND MAKE HIM LOOK STRAIGHT AT MY
FACE IN ORDER TO GET HIS ATTENTION AND EVEN THEN HE IS TRYING TO LOOK OVER ME OR TO THE SIDE OF ME.
HE RUNS THROUGH THE HOUSE CRYING AND YELLING MOST
OF THE TIME THAT WE ARE AT HOME. WE ARE ALL GETTING TIRED OF LISTENING TO HIS CONSTANT YELLING
AND SCREAMING. HE WILL CALL US ANY NAME THAT HE HAS HEARD FROM SOMEONE ELSE, WHETHER IT BE STUPID OR BUTHEAD OR IGNORANT OR SILLY, HIS VOCABULARY HAS NOT EXPANDED BEYOND THAT YET, BUT IF HE KNEW OF OTHER BAD NAMES, YOU BETTER BELEIVE HE WOULD BE USING THEM ALSO. HE HITS ON WHO EVER IS IN THE
ROOM WITH WHATEVER HE HAS IN HIS HAND. IF HE GETS
UP ON THE WEEKEND BEFORE MY HUSBAND AND I, HE WILL GO OUTSIDE ALONE, NEVER STOPPING TO THINK THAT HE HAS BEEN TOLD 100 TIMES NOT TO GO OUT UNLESS WE HAVE GOTTEN UP ALSO AND KNOW THAT HE IS
GOING OUT. HE JUST REFUSES TO LISTEN TO ME, OR HE JUST DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO LISTEN TO ME. I HAVE
SPANKED, TIMEOUT, GROUNDED, THREATHEND, AND MANY OTHER TRICKS, HE FEARS NOTHING. DOES HE HAVE ADHD? |
