I wouldn't wish an out-of-control 4yr old on anyone but I was beginning to think I was the worst mom in the tri-state area...My son has a smart mouth, a penchant for defiant "NO!"s and a bad habit of complaining about everything...I mean everything. Like you my throat is hoarse and my neighbors won't even look me in the eye, what with all the yelling coming from within the walls of our tiny apartment (mine, my son's and now my 10 month old has joined in on the off-key screaming chorus). I am a single mother in school full-time and working and I feel like I don't even have time or energy to tackle the issues...and the worst I had them under control miraculously after my youngest was born and then my school work really started getting demanding the last couple of months and now all my efforts earlier this year have been totally undermined...ughh. I have no advice, pearls of wisdom, but I'm perusing the comments and wishing you the best with your daughter. I know that this age won't last forever but it sure would be nice if this stage passed more quickly.Momma_Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383114822702858975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-83215315838281385302009-10-05T13:25:14.879-05:002009-10-05T13:25:14.879-05:00Oh hello- yup this is my life too.

It sounds to me like she is feeling jealous of her baby sister, Jealously often shows in different ways and it took me months to realise that his outbursts were a result of him feeling replaced. <br /><br />In the end all it took was a huge amount of reassurance from me, that he was not being replaced and once I had explained to him that my feelings for him had not altered in any way, the tantrums and anger decreased significantly.<br /><br />Hope it works out for you!Best Babyhttp://bestnewbabybuys.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-57466724954425812082009-09-15T23:10:24.326-05:002009-09-15T23:10:24.326-05:00Sorry to hear you're having a bad time and sor...Sorry to hear you're having a bad time and sorry to tell you I have no quick fixes for you. Of course neither did your Mom or mine and Dr. Spock certainly didn't know it all either. You're a Mom, and contrary to popular belief, that doesn't make you "Superwoman".<br /><br />First I have to tell ya - your little girls are both completely gorgeous!<br />I even started following you on twitter cause your baby icon makes me smile everytime I see it (if my art could do that for people I'd be wealthy!) and you happen to be pretty damned entertaining in just 140 characters!<br /><br />I do have a suggestion for you though. - the next time your little one acts out - remember it's not personal, it's business (yeah I'm Italian). She is learning what she can and cannot get away with so teach her the ropes. Choose your battles - decide what she can - and you can't - let her get away with. There might be time-outs and possibly some bum bops involved when needed and it could take a few days to a week of consistency (keep some aspirin nearby - for you). No matter how you handle it, it will work out fine and remember - you had to program the remote too! If however, none of that works, after the kids are in bed delete the advice anyone here felt the need to give - have stiff drink and sweet dreams - tomorrow's another day!<br />BTW also cute hubby (pretend) pic!<br />Thanx for the fun tweets - keep am coming.Lynda Bruschini - icontact photo-graphicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11049497411901550698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-30065847595303865702009-09-15T13:26:36.671-05:002009-09-15T13:26:36.671-05:00I totally agree with Anonymous who said to just sm...I totally agree with Anonymous who said to just smack them and add some stern words.<br /><br />As I read all the comments above I think what is wrong with those parents that let their children abuse them?<br /><br />Maybe that's why the kids now a days are all screwed up - because no one cared enough to tell them NO and mean it. To hold them responsible for their actions - kids are killing each other because no one told them it wasn't OK to abuse each other.<br /><br />Look around you and see what the teenagers are up to - because no one told them NO - with a little wack.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-2181514979339988512009-09-15T12:35:11.230-05:002009-09-15T12:35:11.230-05:00Holy Assvice!!!

Heavy stuff.

Heavy stuff.<br /><br />Someone from my moms group posted this a couple years ago and loads of people mentioned what got them through was the book "1-2-3 Magic". I used it then for my then 19 month old cause he was "violently" hitting me and my hubbie (as violently as a 19 month old can), and it worked great and still works for the "I hate you" fours.<br /><br />I find I keep forgetting the 'rules' and have to reread it to remind myself of the really hard parts like keeping quiet (not talking at all) as you count them (sooooo hard!) and not making them say "sorry" when they come out of timeout, you just act like nothing happened. <br /><br />It takes a few days for it to click. One day it took him freaking 20 timeouts, but that's rare.<br /><br />What's nice is that there's no yelling, so you save your vocal cords, and you feel like you're not the bad guy anymore, you're in control. It also makes your kid feel like they're in control cause they have the option to act like a brat and "take" their timeout, or smarten up and be good, all the while mommy is relatively sane. <br /><br />I find my kids like to push the buttons to see how far I can wig out. They argue just to get a rise out of me and keep me talking. They're in control. Which makes me pissy. When I count them, it's a win-win. They can 'win' and 'push' me by not listening till 2 (or 3 and get a timeout), but all the while I win cause I don't lose my freaking mind ;).<br /><br />Good luck :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-86759265784590362022009-09-10T20:54:26.022-05:002009-09-10T20:54:26.022-05:00I think it's the age.
I went through this wh...I think it's the age. <br /><br />I went through this when my twins were 4. Matt was never quite as bad as Meg was, but OMG I didn't think Meg and I were going to live through it. Somehow we did. I stood my ground and soon enough she realized I wasn't budging. And now, here she is at 19 and there are times when we have the same standoff...although it's more yelling and less tears. In the end though, she knows I'm standing my ground, and despite that, I love her more than anything. <br /><br />It's not defeat, not in the slightest to call someone and go in and have them assess the situation. NOT IN THE LEAST. I wish more parents would reach out that way. <br /><br />*hugs*Audrey at Barking Mad!http://www.iambarkingmad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-35875461791280873562009-09-10T08:19:19.963-05:002009-09-10T08:19:19.963-05:00You have my sincerest sympathies.

She seemed to get a bit better when she got her glasses (not that I am suggesting that Chicky needs glasses) She has always been more demanding than her older sister, so I guess in some ways I wasn't expecting it even more since I had 'been there-done that' just 3 years earlier with her older sister. It does get better, learning how not to yell and being very consistent with discipline helped out. <br /><br />(((hugs))) to you hon. <br />Sounds like you will totally be ready to hit the town in NYC next summer!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05247443626425489882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-60695577609402679822009-09-08T10:13:37.136-05:002009-09-08T10:13:37.136-05:00This is why kids cant remember much before the age...This is why kids cant remember much before the age of five.

I couldn't believe that my sweet 3 year old to whom I couldn't be closer and I had horrible interactions when she was 4. Eventually I got better at ignoring some of the stuff -- she couldn't instigate a fight all the time if I wouldn't fight back. She also became more like her old self again within a few months.<br /><br />I do agree also that kids should not be allowed to abuse parents. When she said something completely out of line, she was told that it was unacceptable, that mommy has feelings too, that she could FEEL anyway she wanted or needed to but could not SAY hurtful things to me, and then she was sent to her room. I also thought about taking the door off the hinges if the slamming continued but she stopped before I had to act on it.<br /><br />Good Luck, it will get better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-51862658567699117332009-09-07T21:00:41.645-05:002009-09-07T21:00:41.645-05:00This is a new anonymous.

But really, I think it would only make him whine more!<br /><br />I am going through the exact same with my 4yo son. I am glad I am not the only one. We NEVER yelled in my house growing up EVER. I don't even have fights with my husband. My son just does not listen or respond to anything but yelling. This has gone on for at least a year now and has just made me question my parenting abilities and all the same worries as you. I am also VERY concerned about what our behaviors and yelling are doing to my 14 mo. Is this negatively effecting him and his future behavior and relationship with me or his brother? I have tried to read different books too but never get through them all to make it work and my husband does not try to even read them or help me work through it. He supports me if I tell him what we need to do but I need more than that. <br />If I had a list I would definitely call for help. I believe it truly takes a village to raise our children. We can do it and we will. We need to take care of ourselves too. <br />You will make it through, it may be a long road but you will come out the other side with a great relationship with your daughter. I have no doubt. I just know it is not going to be easy and we have to be patient with this phase. Yes, it is a phase, not forever, not if we can help it and we can.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-48280871482290455792009-09-07T14:47:53.157-05:002009-09-07T14:47:53.157-05:00Have you considered that some (if not most) of the...Have you considered that some (if not most) of the behavioral issues could be caused by food intolerances?

It's a horrible feeling, isn't it? He fusses with me about everything. If I say it's black, he says it's white. And I'm a kindergarten teacher. I'm supposed to have this down!

This is the age where defiance meets reason. To say it's hellish is an extreme understatement. <br /><br />I have zero suggestions for you. I have zero ideas for myself. I've met other kids. I know I'm raising a good one. But lately she's testing and pushing every button have. Survival is on a day to day basis. Is this just preparation for those teenage years? Because that just makes me want to jump off a cliff. Kidding, really.

You want to be the best parent you can be, right? Hunting out a specialist is a smart move. Think of it as equivalent to a class or certification program - you're taking your parenting skills to the next level. :)<br /><br />-HollyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
