    I think we overdid the praise with the youngest though. The first time he "performed" all the family gathered round and clapped and really made a fuss.....it backfired as he hated being the centre of attention, and it set him back weeks!!!

    I don't get nearly enough credit for not being a violent psychopath.

    This thread has had me in stitches :D I decided to go on holiday with my 4 darlings to celebrate my 40th! They are aged 20,16,14 and 5.To say the older ones got one my nerves is an understatement :mad: I kept on saying in my head, I now understand why some go without their kids :o Then I had to remind myself how lucky I was to have them.

    I've come to the conclusion now, that kids are just designed to get on your nerves full stop :D I wouldn't be without them but gosh, they do try your patience :D Some great advice has been given on here :T
