i mainly have discoid. Been having really bad throughout christmas constant colds. Just started with another one which seems a little worse.

kids getting them through school.

Been having a problem with my todler who is at nursery, school. Finding it tiring say the least he only plays up for me getting him dressed for school when my husbands gone work. If anyone got any advice on kids tantrums please let me know.

Main issue is he only has them with me. my elderst 7 year old trys help ends up intervering.

I can so relate to this. My kids are now 15, 15 and 12 and I am experiencing different problems. I think they see the weakness and play up to it. Walking away and ignoring it is always the best policy, don't give them an audience. But, when you have a deadline like going to school it is not always possible. I'm sure you've already tried the reward/star chart route?

Good luck x

Hi Tracy, have you tried the marbels in the jar? At the end of the week they get set rewards for how many they have recieved, obviously they are pre arranged if older or nice surprise if only little ones. its obviously like the reward chart but its different for them visually! If they are allowed to put the marbel in for every positive thing they do, you have to remember to look for all the positives though, it will work for a while, like everything you have to keep changing things!!!

Have you tried looking on line at super nanny?

Good luck and lots of paitience Mandy x

think its gone past reward charts now. The thing is he only dosnt get ready for school when im on my own, He was crying the other day saying he dosnt want to go to school. Im trying to stop him fighting with me while getting his school clothes on. today he was like another kid again.keeps changing his moods. says he's been good. Trying to take it one day at a time might get better when hes older.
