Need to vent...going to snap!

agree with FSD 100% not carrying a child 24/7 is not withholding love it is teaching independence. I too have had a few sucky kids and it drives me nuts. I don't have time to hold multiple children all day and refuse to. That doesn't mean they don't get hugs and comfort when needed.

My "handful" has been giving me issues eating lately. He will hold the food in his mouth forever. Today while reminding him to chew he decided to stuff about 4 tater tots in his mouth (without chewing) and had his mouth so full he was gagging! WTH!! This better not be his "new thing". I made him spit it all out and of course that resulted in him crying. I don't know what to do with him. Mom says he doesn't do it at home. It usually results in me having to clean his mouth out with my finger because he won't swallow and I can't put him to bed with a full mouth of food. sigh.....is it the weekend yet!!
