[quote=Anonymous]Op here: thanks for so many of your thoughtful replies. I agree that I need to chill out and not micromanage. I think the idea of the router being turned off is the best idea. My husband is helpful— but he is allergic to chaos. And it’s tough bc I have a different sensory system— I am reactive. The combo of being reactive, getting overwhelmed with noise etc. combined with a highly spirited 11 year old and a teen boy is tough. I have read most of Brene Brown and am working on myself— always. It’s interesting— I am an only child who grew up with a single mother... so, ironically, I don’t like chaos either, but I exacerbate it through screaming. My younger son is very hard and my husband has a hard time too, really. I try to teach my boys emotional intelligence and I tell them that I have feelings too and that I don’t want to spend my night nagging about stuff. I’m going to try turning off the router at a set time.[/quote]
