Close Parenting Preschoolers (3-5)
I have a 3 and almost 5 year old. Both girls. My 5 year old acts like my 3 year old for the attention, my 4 year old is in PreK. I am having major behavioral problems out of both of them and i feel like i am losing control over my kids. I NEED SERIOUS ADVICE!!!
Treatments
- Child Time-out Somewhat Helpful
- Sometimes it works, just depends on what mood the girls are in. Most of the time they throw a fit while in the corner or sitting on the couch. I try to ignore them and when time is up let them go and if they do it again, put them back for the same amount of time.
- Positive Reinforcement Not Working
- I try my hardest to be possitive when they misbehave but it seems to make things worse.
- Crying Working / Worked
- It helps me, just to let it out in crying instead of screaming
Close Obesity
I gained alot of weight when i was pregnant with my kids, which the last one was 3 years ago and i can't get my self to stick to a plan to lose weight, my dr. just informed me that i am early diabetic. We have been trying to get pregnant for over a year now and my dr. said i am not ovulating and i am irregular because of my weight. i am so affraid that i won't be able to have anymore kids because of my weight. I really don't have any support from my family
Treatments
- Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Not Working
- It is hard
- Walking Working / Worked
- I have tryed walking twice a day once before my kids get up in the morning and when they go to bed. I just cant seem to keep myself doing it.
- Crying Working / Worked
- it helps but doesn't get rid of the problem
Open Stress Management
I stress out about everything, and if it doesn't get done the way i want it done or its supposed to i blow up at who ever is there. i have bad mood swings, i don't understand it . i can be very content one min and then the next i can just be on a rampage. I get angry real easy. i have no patience
Treatments
- Music Working / Worked
- If i get stressed or angry or anything, i put on my ipod or turn the music up on the tv and it calms me down.
- Patience Not Working
- I am trying but i have just never had it.
- Breathing Exercises Working / Worked
- My best friend told me that when i feel like i am going to explode at whatever or whoever just to close my eyes and breath in and breath out a few times and let it all out. I am working on that and it seems to work as long as i actually do it. Sometime i dont think before i start in on whatever it is or who it is.
- Lexapro Working / Worked
- I was taking it but it stopped working i am fixing to go back to the dr. and see if he has something else i can try to see if it can calm me down and help my mood swings maybe i wont get mad so easy
- Crying Working / Worked
- it helps just letting it out
Open Depression
Type: Seasonal Affective DisorderI don't where to start. I cry all the time, i feel like i am losing control over my kids, i feel like my marriage is in trouble, i don't want to do anything anymore. Its hard for me to get up and do stuff like i used to. i want to be able to go play dolls and dress up and little girls stuff with my girls.

Open Parents of Children with ADHD
my daughter was diagnosed at 2 years old with adhd, yes 2. she was my first child and when dr.s told me that i thought they knew what they were talking about so i told them to do what needed to be done.
