When you have a child you begin to deal with a lot of shit. And other people just have to adapt to it. Especially when they come into the house after your child has lived there for 2 years and is used to having things their way. It doesn’t matter if you are used to living on your own and living with somebody is different for you.. it matters what is different for the child. Afterall, you are the adult here. Meaning… YOU should change. Not the kid.
People need to realize.. when a baby is born, they are coming into this world not knowing anything at all. You teach them everything. So a person can never say how bad a little kid is. It is what they learn, or how they learn.
My son is bad. Yes, he is. But I know why he is, too. And it’s not really even that he is bad, it is that he is bored and he wants to explore everything. He just gets into everything and he’s hyper. I’m sorry if you can not handle my child. However, I am not sorry if you think that I should take into consideration that you have lived on your own or are used to doing what you want. I shouldn’t have to take that into thought. You knew that coming here, you would be living with my child here as well. Maybe it was a mistake, maybe it wasn’t. That’s not the issue now anyhow. I’m not saying any mistakes were made. However, I want people to realize that when there is a child involved – the child should come as number one. Not what you THE ADULT want. Sorry, but that’s how it goes.
Especially when the child in question is my son.
I can’t wait to get out of this house and in our own house where my son won’t ever get an attitude from anyone else that will make him feel unwanted. The good thing about him being so young now though, is he doesn’t realize that people give him an attitude … he doesn’t feel bad about it yet. But I feel bad for him with it, and that, believe me, starts some arguments. When we get our place I won’t have to worry about him touching other people’s things. If that’s the problem, then keep your things in your room. Again, like I’ve said before.. my son was here first. He is number one in my life and in this house. It’s just something you have to get used to. He doesn’t have to adapt to you – you are the adult, adapt to him.
And one more thing… when you want to be alone, then do that. Don’t come downstairs knowing my son will want to see you and then ignore him or get mad at every little thing he does. Go out, or stay in your room. Whatever.
My son is a huge ball of energy but he holds a lot of love inside. He is also very sensitive. He just wants to have fun and be loved. If there’s any problem with that at all, then take care of it yourself.
