[quote=Anonymous]Mine are 2/5/7 (all just recently turned these ages) and it's gotten better recently. Still problems, but better. One thing I do is feed myself first. I went for about a year without eating dinner due to their nonsense. Now I eat alone for 10 mins then plate their food/try to anticipate their needs. We don't do screentime M-Fri. I experimented with this and it has forced them to figure out how to play together for those 60 mins between getting home from school until dinner. Less tantrums/stress. But I freely admit it was trial and error and this is what worked for us. Husband is useless, please don't even ask. [/quote]
