Every time we go out, he runs away. Usually we find him in a few minutes. Today he was missing for about an hour in woodland backing onto open countryside. We were on the verge of calling the police.
Despite a long chat, an hour later he ran off in Tesco's.
Whatever time he goes to bed, he gets up. We have gradually pushed his bed time back from 7.30 to 9 pm. Despite cycling, trampolining and playing out all day, he is still crashing around upstairs.
He ignores anything I say to him. He earns stickers on a chart for good behaviour, which are worth 10p pocket money (usually for Lego). These can come off for bad behaviour. The last 6 have come off, none gone on.
He gets up about 6am
GroClock no longer effective
Nothing effective!!!
How does he never get tired?
Even when he is sitting still he is jiggling about and fiddling.
