So...How long do I let her cry before I move on?

I am SO sad to say that my 6 years old son is like that! Cried twice already today. I don't even remember why. Ran in his room screaming that I was unfair, that I am the president of the meany club! Drains the energy out of me! I try not to let it get to me, but.......

And he is different than his older brother, who is such an easy child, and his younger sister, a joy on 2 legs!

Hard for a mommy's hearth because they are hard to love! Don't get me wrong, I love him, but he is hard to love!

Sarah I can totally relate to you. My almost 6 year old gives me a run for my money everyday. He is far more work than the 5 little ones put together!!!

Thanks alot for saying this!

I feel so bad when I say this, but it is true, he is an energy drainer! And it is not because he moves too much. He is so charming, nice, intelligent, funny. But he is and has always been a crier! Life is unfair to him!

At some point (about a year ago), I had to go in his room at night, sit down on a chair and look at him sleep. I wanted to look at him serenely, and feel only my love for him instead of the annoyance I was feeling towards him all day long!

Hard to love!

I kind of hoped it would get better growing up...

Anyway, thanks!
