We had another bad day at school yesterday, which was when Steve got home. I am going to have to keep track of these patterns, and really see if this is an issue that needs addressed.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06970722739917121208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8024452810108480973.post-55736085071961469692011-11-29T10:39:15.793-05:002011-11-29T10:39:15.793-05:00My little guy (he is about Ben's age) goes thr...My little guy (he is about Ben's age) goes through phases where he seems not to care that daddy is gone and other times where he is a bear to deal with. I am still searching for ways to deal with bad behavior. I found that consistancy in rules seems to keep him more in line. It is hard for a 4 year old to say "I miss my dad and I am pissed that he has been gone for 7 days so I am going to act out". He has become more vocal and comes and sais "I need cuddles when he is really in the dumps". I will tell you that I did notice that he has melt downs that are 1000 times worst when Mr. Right is not at home then when he is here. Son has total hero worship when it comes to daddy and thus controls himself better when he is arround - we went through a time when he would ask me not to tell daddy when he was actig badly. You are not alone in this, I am searcing for answers as well.Whirly Wifehttp://whirlywives.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
