Just doing a little venting
Hello All,
It's been a while since I last posted. I didn't see a "Venting" forum thus will post my venting here. Wifey and I have been at wicks end lately with my little guy. Between his mealtdowns, being super loud when he speaks, constant interuptions, not sleeping in his own bed at night we've been going out of our minds. Not only is it tolling on wifey and I...it is tolling on his 9 yo sister. BTW...my little guy is 4 1/2.
I feel like we are continuously repremanding him which cannot be good for his self esteem. We try to explain things to him in a calming way over and over and over with no results. We are only human and just lose patience and end up yelling at him which has to make him feel bad. I am pretty certain he could get the Pope to lose his temper and yell at him.
He's been going to an OT and therapist weekly for 9 or 10 months and goes to a preschool that specializes in kids with autism/spd/speech etc. We do see some improvements, however, there are some things that are worse. Ughhh....it is exhausting beyond exhausting. My wife and I cannot even have a simple conversation without him interupting SEVERAL times. I don't know what else we can do to explain to him not to interupt and wait his turn. I feel like one of us has to be "entertaining" him during every waking minute of the day.
Another of our concerns is that his SPD is interfering with his ability to learn. He is 4 1/2 and still cannot write his name or recite all the ABC's. Nor does he have the desire to do so.
I wish we had some answers....I wish things would become a little easier for our family....finally I wish my little guy didn't have to struggle over things that everybody else takes for granted.
Thanks for listening to my venting.

RE: Just doing a little venting
I feel for you. Wish I had some advice for ya.. but I am in the same boat with my little man and his behavior. I do think its pretty neat that you found a preschool that specializes with kids with those issues. Wish I had that around where I live. Hopefully it will get better & I pray for your family.

RE: Just doing a little venting
Thank you for the kind words and keeping us in your prayers. Also...thanks for hearing my rant and venting. Sometimes we just need to let it out. It is nice knowing that everybody here knows where my rant and venting is coming from.
Many Thanks,
Frubsdad

RE: Just doing a little venting
I don't have any advice but I feel the same with my nearly 7 yr old son. I am a lone parent and I can tell you I feel like I am a real nut job at times. Can't even go to the loo for five mins without being found or yelled at from him.
I love school cos my son likes the routine and his problems are before and after school. Heaven help me when his 6 week summer break starts.
