"2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 they all do it", is what i keep getting told

Each day i keep reminding myself it's normal or a phase that will pass, i keep looking at my parenting and thinking that i must be somehow failing and failing him to be having a child with this attitude. As i type he's screaming at his little brother for even being close to him it's so disheartening at times.

Honestly i have no real advice because i'm struggling too and have been going to post something myself but haven't gotten around to it. He may have caught me on an emotional day but last Saturday he had me in tears within less than an hour of being up.

Getting down to her level and calming talking to her sounds great, i think what i'm beginning to learn is at their age as nicely as we say things and try and explain ourselves as clearly as possible it doesn't mean they'll listen to reason in any way. I was told by my DS's day carer to try keep calm and replicate the things we want them to do, the sharing, the taking turns, speaking nicely to each other. We're not going anywhere today and i'm going to give it a go, get down on their level play with them and really try and throw in some positive examples of 'being kind' and 'playing well with others'. It's a daily battle and i hope it gets easier.

I'm absolutely terrified about having a teenager
