Parents of Preschoolers  Discussion Forum

My son is very intelligent and sweet. But he won' t take suggestions, doesn' t listen and doesn' t care at all for my feelings. His books are the dirtiest, he writes whatever he wants to, regardless of the rewards I/his teacher place in front of him. I feel he doesn' t let our advice ' penetrate' in his mind till I start shouting and screaming. And its the same with his friends too, he just won' t pay any heed to what they are saying, even though he loves playing with them.

I' m very frustrated and tired and have started avoiding interacting with him, as I find it so extremely difficult every sentence is met with buts and whys. Please advice badly need it. Ravina Singh replied. How old is he? Has he always been this way or is this a change in behvaiour and if so since when is he behaving this way? Look for new friends or depression or bullying or any such thing that might be tormenting him if this is a behavioral change. If otherwise, find out who he listens to and why he does the things he does. You could rope in professional help if very desparate.
