hello
i have another question, its about parenting
i have a boy that is 18 months old, my husband is gone all week and it is just me and jayson. I am having a hard time putting him on a schedule, because we never did it before. He sleeps in our bed, im scared to put him in his bed, im scared he will fall and get hurt very seriously, but my biggest problem is patience!! i have none!! i dont know what to do. I am so mean!! it upsets me but he never, ever listens to me!! i will say no half a dozen times and he wont even look my way....then i will either put him in time out or smack his legs. but when i put him in time out he wont stay. He repeatedly messes with the sames things i tell him not too, every single day!!! i get so mad at him!!! he whines all the time instead of trying to talk, he whines for no reason sometimes, i guess it is the terrible twos...i really feel like i love my yorkies better sometimes, which is wrong but they behave some much better, my mom just teases me about it saything that pay back is hell. i know my husband has no clue how bad i can get, im a yeller...i feel so bad but in the same token i an warn out on saying "no"!! and when my husband does come home, if i want to run do the store i am expected to take our son, it doesnt matter if i am going two minutes up the street.
one of the things that grates on my nerves, is jayson (son) pulling books off the book shelve and throwing them around the house, he is doing that right now, also getting in to the dogs food and water and making huge messes. i love him so much but i dont know what to do and i dont want him to grow up and be a juvey!! i want a polite, sweet boy!!! i know i need to spend more time working with him and im trying i bought a bunch of books today and we are working on communicating but it is so hard with the male species and even harder when they cant tell you what they need too!!!!
Help!! feel like beating my head on the desk right now!!
Sorry this was soooooooooooo long
Please any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
