Behaviour

Yes! He was good as gold before and is aparently good at school too but he’s started answering back a LOT and is full of attitude which he’d never done before starting school 😭

Yep, tried so many things he just doesn't care!!

He’s grown up a lot, he was quite young for his age but his listening suddenly sucks!!! I have to tell him not to do something 16171652818 times before I completely lose my shit

Nice to know I’m not the only one!!

I noticed this when I put my son into nursery beginning of this year but I just couldn’t let it continue so pulled him out and now we homeschool. It’s a hard one, especially at this age as they pick up things and are heavily influenced by most things. I think you need to sit down with your other half/co-parent and decide how you want to discipline your child.

Yeah I feel like my kiddo uses up all his emotional energy and self control at school, then lashes out and tests boundaries at home. It's so reasonable and yet so aggravating. It's a really big change for them, though! Even ones who did full time daycare, like mine, are suddenly asked to use their tiny little brains a lot more and follow stricter routines. It makes sense that their behaviour would take a dive.

Me! It’s so mentally exhausting

Have you tried giving them more independence? This has worked with my daughter. She now makes her bed every morning, sets the table for meals and helps out around the house. I have told her it's more responsibility as she is getting older. She doesn't always want to help out, which I don't force, but does keep her room tidy etc

Mines always at me being 4 agreesion backchat refuses to walk shouts and screams His golden at school but Chucky on crack at home also lost the plot like 284638 days ago 😄🤦‍♀️

I think once they start school, they have a lot of routines & rules to follow and they can’t always show the emotions they wish to at school, so once they are home, we are their safe place and they can let all the built up emotions out and unfortunately that sometimes comes out in tamtrums and bad behaviour as they are trying to regulate from school to home, maybe something is bothering her and doesn’t know how to express herself x
