[quote=Anonymous]I have 2 boys, 9 and 6, and I feel you re: the never-ending energy. When they were little, I used to think of them like border collies that need to be worked. That said, the peeing in the hallway on purpose and not listening at all is not typical. I would start with their pediatrician and try to get some kind of referral, either for parenting classes, or potentially evaluations for your kids. DCUM can be mean, but please don't dismiss the people that are saying you need help, because I can't imagine a scenario where this doesn't get worse over time. Kids crave confident caregivers and boundaries. They are lost without them.[/quote]
