Yesterday was a great day! I have been hanging out with this guy Cory, he has two boys. Well they all came over for dinner last night and his boys and Caleb played to well together! They are adorable and well mannered too! They plaayed outside and in Caleb's room and them watched a movie. Cory and I talked and enjoyed a bottle of wine. I also made him watch American Idol with me LOL. Which is not his thing at all., but he was a trooper! When they left Caleb was sad, he wanted to know when his friends would be coming back. So I think I might have found a good fit for Caleb and me. We will see though.
On a not so good note I have been having a hard time with Caleb at daycare. He is really good when he is not with Gabe. The daycare told me they are having issues with behavior with Gabe and when Caleb is arould him he wornt listen. So as a parent do I tell Caleb not to play with him? And no matter what I do I will be the bad guy because Gabe is Calebs dads stepson. I dotn want to tell Caleb who he can and cant play with, but I dont need my son acting like a brat at school, especially when I have been working so hard to get him to behave. What to do?????
Hi stranger!!! That's a tough one. It's so hard to reason with them at that age...especially boys. I will say, it's the teacher's responsibility to separate them if they need to be separated. You can't be the disciplinarian when you are not there. Not only that, but when Caleb stays with his dad, isn't Gabe there, too? Again, not much you can do. What you can do is talk to Caleb, maybe let him know that when you hear of him misbehaving like that, it makes you sad. You are a good mom and are teaching him right from wrong, he will be fine! Boys are such a treat. LOL...good luck!
