Here is a warning to all parents with kids under the age of 3. Beware of the attitude. Oh it happens. You might think the teeible 2's are bad..just wait! Wait until you kid is in school and tired from long days. Or until fall comes and it gets darker earlier so he can not play with his friends as long. Or until they boycott nap for a couple days and then it catches up to them. I could go on and on but the attitude it sucks!!!
And I know that all professionals will say kids are testing their boundries so you have to stick to what you say so they know their limits. I get it. I get being tired and crabby. But man sometimes I just fear for when my kids are teenagers.They are stubborn. They will fight for what they want. At times they will throw a fit when they do not get it ( I actually find this kind of funny...I mean really I said no already and you thinking throwing a fit will make me change my mind????)
I am glad that they are willing to fight for what they want but sometimes i just want them to realize that no matter how hard they fight they wouldnt always get it. Its a hard life lesson especially when you are 6, 3 or 20 months. Hell at times it is hard at 30.
Kids can be so cute at times ( I think God makes them that way for a reason) and they can be the most frustrating things ever! Alex is at the point where by the end of the week he is TIRED!!!Between school, football, and friends he is exhausted come Thursday or Friday. And when that kid is tired you better watch out. There will be attitudes, sometimes tears, sometimes yelling (both him and us) (yes I yell at my kids and fyi ill yell at yours if they are misbehaving). I get it hes tired. But really??? No one warns you about these moments. About the moments where you just want to grab a beer and sit in the bathroom for 5 minutes of peace and quiet. But I am here to tell you they happen. And they SUCK!!!!But they will pass and teh good will outway the bad....most days! :)
