my 9 yr old son cried so fiercely this morning before school ( he says Mondays are bad and give him headaches) I got him dressed, ate ice cream for breakfast, just to get him to eat, and off to school. the crying got worse and was so bad when we got to school, his monday thing is headaches.. he said it was bad. I had given given him 2 tylenol in the morning. I gave in and let him stay home. He was embarrassed to let the neighbor kids see him go back in the house because I had to go to work.. I gave him my cell and Dad is 2 min. from home and big sister is still home and back & forth to school. I asked him to rest, knowing he did not get enough sleep the night before. knowing in fact that he never gets to bed before 10pm because him and dad play xbox. he lies about his homework. he gets so angry he swears and throws things. but I see his insecurity… what do I do?? I think there is a problem with co-parenting,, but i have to step up!!
