It’s challenging! One child went back to preschool. I’m thinking another needs to go back. I can’t get over all the behavior problems.

Behavior problems seem to run rampant nowadays.
My grands were here the weekend. I did a lot of cringing. Moms let them all run around with blueberries in hand. I believe in keeping food, especially messy food, at the table. They ate continuously, while we were preparing meals. No "wait, it's almost time for lunch" instead it was "Do you want some cereal while you wait? Do you want a snack? Here's a sandwich." They fed them snacks, then piled their plates full. So much food was thrown out.
The two year old was given one of my high dollar pans, and a wooden spoon, and also my favorite measuring spoons and cups to play with. At the end of the day, I had to dig them out of the toy box and wash them. We keep plenty of toys around, so there is no need for them to play with this stuff. I kept my mouth shut, but not Pop. He had plenty to say. 🤣
We were so worn out by the end of the day. I love them, but I think I prefer them in small doses. I could not be a teacher.

Good morning, All.

Parenting - or the lack thereof. SMH

It's a strange thing. These parents are well educated adults, in their early 40s. They are very involved in their children's lives and activities. (So many activities!)
They were very close until having children.
But now, one set of parents criticizes the other for being too lenient. They can't see any faults in their own parenting or in their children's behavior. I just shrug and go on, but it's making my husband nuts. With all the changes in our world, and the exposure children have to it, I'm just happy the parents are keeping them safe and in private school.
