4 sucks.

That's all I've got LOL
Thanks for the laugh!

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately those have been tried and failed too. He just won't stop. Last night he had a whinge because he was writing his name and decided he didn't like the letter "n" Counting used to work but now it just makes him whinge more and he still won't do whatever it is we've asked him to do. It still works for DD though! Putting him in his room for timeout just seems to draw it out. He keeps going! After alloted time has elapsed I go in and he will have a cuddle but then he becomes really clingy.

Maybe I should just buy some earplugs Is there any guideline on how long this phase lasts?
