[quote=Anonymous]OP , hugs to you. I remember this age. I think mine were not quite at this level but I had two, and I remember how relentless and both physically and emotionally exhausting it was. And so lonely. I am sure you have tried everything but for us success (or non disaster :) was all about exercise. My goal in life when boys were at least ages 3-9 was to exhaust them physically in the safest location possible. I never did a holiday without a ton of exercise beforehand. We have done every playground, every local trail, every climbing gym, every indoor playground, every ropes course who knows how many times. And if it's pouring rain and I needed to take them to a McDonald's play space, so be it. Oh and my basement is also a playground... monkey bars, swings, tumbling mats, even mattresses on floors and walls. Also holes in walls from crashes and bumps but who cares. Anyway, I found exhaustion took the edge off! I promise the hyperactivity gets better.[/quote]
