[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least you’re not like me and end up screaming at him I feel like shit every time. Sorry OP you’re doing well by my standards. [/quote] Can you do something to lessen your load, or deal with your anger, so you don't end up screaming at him? You are your child's world during the toddler stage. Screaming at a toddler is much more damaging than it might sometimes seem. You must get this to some degree because you say you feel like shit, so I'm not trying to shame you further. Verbal abuse is a big deal and something that really needs to be dealt with. Hopefully you already are getting help, perhaps? My husband obviously doesn't remember being yelled at as a child, though he probably was. He sure does, however, remember his sister being yelled at as a toddler. It's a bad way to start off a relationship with your child and usually doesn't get better by itself. (The toddler years are not going to be the only stressful times you encounter.)[/quote] I’m the poster and still this made me feel like shit but probably because you’re right. I don’t know I cook all meals and snacks, I do dishes and laundry, I work fulllllllll fuhhhkeenn time at all times of the day, he skips naps and throws tantrums, he’s up at least two times at night so sleep is garbage, he doesn’t listen, nothing no listening, and it’s just me and my husband here, no family or friends since we just moved here. So listening to whining over and over and over and over and over and over again I lose it. So to OP you ARE doing better than others take it from me.[/quote] It's hard without other people to lean on. I hope you're able to get a break soon. [/quote]
