I am exhausted today and lost my rag with ds. I love playing with him most of the time, we play a lot and he amuses himself in dribs and drabs, once a day I put the telly on, try not to have it on for more than 45 mins because it makes me feel depressed. Question I wanted to ask is how can i enocourage him to spend more time alone/playing etc. If I do stuff without him for too long (not talking about cooking, i involve him in cooking, i am talking about reading a newspaper) he whinges, or starts to do stuff that he knows is not allowed. When we are out he is very independent though, and leaves me in peace....Help me please.
