[quote=Anonymous]I would laugh at my husband if he had this schedule and said he needed more alone time. That's ridiculous; he's getting plenty. In terms of your high-need toddler, you need to stop catering him. You could get more done around the house if you put him in a "safe area." Could you gate off a room and childproof it and let them play there (he needs to learn how to entertain himself) for even 15 - 20 minutes while you do something, checking in on him and talking to him/interacting with him while you are doing what it is you need to do. You also need to run errands with him. I have 2 under 2 and you just need to do it. He will eventually learn to behave in public. You cannot cater to him and keep him at home just because he is "high needs" and cries. [/quote]
