[quote=Anonymous]3 kids and my house is definitely not peaceful. We don’t spank and don’t usually scream, but I use threats and change my tone when I need the kids to do something. The situation gets stressful when we need to leave the house or when kids start fighting and crying. Boy is harder than his sisters so you may have a harder time because you have 2 boys. I enjoy my kids most of the time, but I do have moments when I wish I were single in my 20s still 🤣. It is not easy…. As someone said above, try to control a little less and have clear (but obtainable) rules/goals. My kids watch tv when baby naps after lunch. They will watch 2 hours… and I don’t care. They make a mess coloring and playing. I ask them to clean up and what they get dirty I will clean it and I don’t care. The older two (7 and 5) dress themselves, feed themselves snacks and breakfast… I just try to relax. 1 extra hour of tv is not worse for them than it is for me to get little to no break.[/quote]
