So today I had a really bad mummies day…
We got to North Harbour Reserve after many threats not to go for the play date with Soren..
The boys were all playing nicely and I was a little surprised with Will and Soren sitting around “chatting” for a lot of the time..
When I was approached by another mother to ask me “are they your boys?” I reply with a tentative “yes”! She informs me that they are asking her to “show us your boobies”! You can imagine the look on my face and escalation on my nerves!! I had stern words with the boys asking why they would ask that and made them apologise for such rude behaviour.
I drove home completely frazzled and exhausted by my two oldest children, and are only 2 and 4!!
The combination of attitude, back chat, taunting, rough play, hitting and aggression is unnerving me and putting my stress to levels I don’t think I have ever experienced!!
Thursday last week was somewhat similar and so I am needing to get smarter than them and preempt such behaviour and strategies to stop it early…
Morning play consisted of trains, new train track and colouring so what else can I do.. it’s not lack of entertainment or engagement..
Tonight I’ve been called an Ogre and Silly old women.. ride the waves I guess…..
Quote of the day “what doin Will? What does it look like I’m doing Toby? Fixin the car! Yes that’s right” (playing with a lego car!) they can be cute!!
