[QUOTE="mommabear34, post: 706042, member: 21243"] Thank you Susie :) I am so proud of all that he has accomplished so far... I am however very nervous for him being mainstreamed into public school for grade one next year... and his anger is quite worrisome... a couple months ago he hit me with a hockey stick... gave me bruises... I already have issues with my back so we're really trying to get these temper tantrums under control before he gets to big for me to be able to be able to physically defend myself... that was the worst incident so far... since then his father and I have been more united in his discipline... which is extremely helpful for me because before there was a kind of "fun parent, strict parent" situation going on so now that his dad realizes that he needs to follow through with what he says consequences will be (the same way as I do) and as often as I do my son is slowly becoming less bossy and his temper tantrums are happening fewer and with less intensity. As I said before even with me taking his precious TV shows away the past few days he's been amazingly well behaved. So I think that we've been spoiling him up until recently... because we really didn't know the difference between a meltdown and a temper tantrum. But now that I know the difference (I can hear it in the way he cries and when he's having a tantrum and he thinks he's going to get what he wants he will calm down in an instant) I can act accordingly. The first few weeks were pretty rough lol... he really fought back and tested those limits but I must say that since he's been back in school and in his regular routine again he's never been this well behaved. And happy. And without the TV on all afternoon. I couldn't be more pleased! He's still working on peeing at night... last night he decided to pee BEFORE we even went to sleep and his reasoning was that he thought he wouldn't have to wake up later... so we're still working on it but as long as he's trying that's all I'm asking of him. :group-hug: :likeit: [/QUOTE]
