I don't know what to tell you, but I'm sending you hugs and I wish you best of luck with everything.
Thank you Megan.
My son is obsessed with Thomas the Tank Engine. He flips out when one needs a new battery, or if the eyebrow rubs off, etc. He reads EVERYTHING so I'm trying to keep him busy with that. Today he was really upset because the television station was messing up and it ruined his time to watch his show. He was convinced the television was broken and wanted a new one.

I'm trying to figure out what his triggers are. Bedtime is the WORST time of day here. It's so stressful! It doesn't matter how I tweak it or prepare, or how tired he is, he will wind right back up in bed and it takes forever for him to calm down and settle.

Thanks for all the feedback, sometimes I just need to vent, I guess.
