Whoever thought kabobs was a good idea never had a toddler who likes to play with sticks!
I think I need to confess something: I have THAT kid! You know that out of control one screaming, running around, and throwing tantrums. It is funny b/c the odds of keeping him controlled in a nice quiet restaurant are about a 100x better than getting him to behave in a Peter Piper. As I've mentioned he has something called Sensory Integration which means if he is in a situation where the senses are overly simulated than he goes NUTS.
So tonight we had a very frustrating night going to our church's Christmas Party. He was chasing kids with sticks, stealing little kids cookies, grabbing the head dresses off the Wise-man, and basically TORTURING his parents. We had to take him out into the hall for the entire nativity presentation. I'm exhausted. I am wondering what I will do if all 3 of these kids has the same condition. We have multiple Early Intervention specialists helping us but I just don't know when this is going to get better.
I think we all have THAT KID at some point. Keep your chin up!
