Hello everyone :)
I am new to the forum and would like to Thank you in advance for taking the time to read my post. All suggestions are welcome.
My Dayhome is 6 months old and I love doing it except for........
I have 2 full timers, brother (4), sister (17 months), I love them to pieces except when my 4 year old son and 16 month daughter get involved (which is every day) lol.
My four year old son does not get along with the 4 year old boy I look after. I have to constantly supervise them and ensure they are being nice to each other (for lack of a better word). The boy I look after is constantly copying my sons words and actions, following him everywhere, telling him what he has at home, making constant noises to irritate him, laughs at him if he gets mad and continues to do these things after my son has asked him to stop. It seems I have to step in every 5 minutes because they just can't work it out. My son resorts to yelling at him (screaming actually), hitting and/or pushing. Then the tattle begins but who's to blame??????? where do I intervene?? Do I couch each sentance, say stop each time??
My son won't walk away and it turns into " NO, YES, NO, YES, NO, YES" or " He hit me" or " He won't stop following me"....on...on...on.
They do have good periods but more often then not I feel I have to keep them seperated and then my son starts saying " He's looking at me!!!!! STOP!!!!!"
Suggestions......PLE ASE HELP
Next.......
My Daughter is a brute.....
She is 16 months and beautiful too but she is aggresive, hits with sippy cups and anything else, pinches, pulls hair, takes any toy the other kids are playing with and does not listen to no. If you remove her she pitches a fit and then continues her actions. She is a loving little girl and the only thing that's working ( a little) is saying " Hugs and Kisses, Hugs and Kisses" or pretending to cry but she is hard on the little one I look after which is a 17 month old girl.
I love my kids and I love the kids I look after, I just don't like them together....lol
The End
Thank you sooooo much
