I have a three year old son, my boyfriend has a two year old son, and together we have a five month old son. We are having a problem with my boyfriend's two year old son and whining. He cries more about nothing then our five month old son. Literally, all you have to do is look at him wrong and he will start whining about it. My son is usually pretty good with him. There have been a few incidents where he has been hitting or pushing him, but he is a boy and that is what little boys do, they fight. It seems like the whining has gotten so much worse though from the two year old. My son just has to say his name or ask him to play and he cries. I am at my end with the whining, it is like nails on a chalkboard to me and I don't know what to do. It is driving me nuts, and I want to pull out my hair. It is hard to ignore it and I just don't know what to do. Help!!!!
My three year old did go through the terrible twos but nothing like that. Ignoring it didn't work, and sitting in time out isn't going it either. He needs to start using his words to get our attention. The thing is though while at mom's you make the slightest noise and mommy picks you up. He has a seven year old brother on mom's side also, I think he gets him in trouble a lot, and that is why he feels the need to whine when my son tries to play with him. He needs to learn he can't do that when he is with us and I don't know how to stop it. When we had him full time I had him out of this and he was talking. He has regressed so much. I just need to keep my sanity!
