every day for the last week we have had a load of aggro.

he is steadily making me feel more and more angry.

i have just got 2 things out for him and ds1 to sit at the table and do with me.

a model and a dig out dinosaur thing, got them at xmas

ds2 wants ds1 dinosaur thing and turns into moany whingey mr negative AGAIN

i am short on patience now, told him he is behaving like a 2 year old. said lets not bother making the model if he is so miserable.
escalates into shouting cheekiness where he snatches part of it off me and nearly pulls my bloody finger off!

i ma ashamed to say i have done what i bolloc**d dh for the other day, i was very angry and grabbed him and very uncerimoniously chucked him on his bed. i did not keep my cool.

i feel crap.

I have to walk on eggshells with my 7yo DS, too. I honestly don't know when boys grow up + turn reasonable. "Age 35?" (says DH, age 32).
