Lately it seems like my kids ( 6, 5, &3) don't listen at all! I wind up spending all day just trying to get them to listen. From the moment they wake up, till the moment they fall asleep. The second I get on the phone they start fighting, I can't take them in a store at all, even if I try baking with them or doing something fun it just gets ruined because they start fighting, whining , or just plain not listening.
I don't know what happened, it used to just be the oldest one I had problems with( she's my sd and her mom left her with us and moved away), but now its all three. I am 33 wks pregnant so I don't know if that has anything to do with their acting out but I need to get it under control, I also have anxiety and just trying to make it through the day without crying over all this is hard.
Please any advice? any techniques? anything? i'm desperate!
Thanks ladies for all your advice, and it's nice to know i'm not alone with all this :) I'll be trying some of the stuff you guys mentioned, I think i'm also going to get the stuff to make a reward system for good behavior. Again thank you :)
