Massive parenting vent - I need your help.

Oh no hun I feel for you and have no huge advice because I am feeling like going back to work as well for the same reasons. We are using 123 magic here as well though hun - I got it for $25 on ebay - well worth it and although we have adapted it quite a bit it is really good. xoxox Hope things settle for you soon sweets. xox

ETA: Oh we use a rewards chart here for Iz too for night sleeps, we use it in phases when her going to sleep deteriorates but it does work well.

Thank you so much ladies. Maybe they aren't getting enough stimulation or not the right stimulation. I'm off to look up 123 magic and see if it has any suggestions.

Can't thank you all enough .

Have to go and get my "precious" ones to bed - still doing that battle

I have no ideas for you cos I feel your pain!!! But, that was mine about 6 months ago, and they have both calmed down a bit now from what they were, and DD1 doesn't scream and shriek nearly as much as she used to.

So hopefully they will grow out of it like mine seem to be doing

you poor thing been there....i dont know have any real advice its just me and my Dh are very strict when it coems to that sort of thing.....dinner time can be not pleasent....my DS1 doesnt like/ wont eat it...even tho he is hungry so i make him sit there and finish i dished out for him.....

I guess my point is dont show them you're gving up they will sense it and be worse....maybe play some games or go out....i try and tire them out as much as i can....
