[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The screens in the morning started as a way to keep my 4 year old contained. He’s a swirly madman. He wakes up going 1,000,000 miles an hour and he always needs a ton of things. It was a way to contain his tornado while the rest of us got ready. But now the older boys sit down and watch TV with him without getting ready so it’s just become a bit of a mess.[/quote] He can behave without the screen in the morning. Truly, he can. You need to be ready yourself and capable of parenting him when he wakes up. A 4 yr old shouldn’t need more than 45 min max to wake up, get dressed, eat breakfast. You can manage that. He won’t learn to behave if you keep giving him the screen [/quote]
