Had enough..

Went to my mother in laws for dinner this evening..it was great to visit with her. That is until my nephew and sister in law got there. I don't know what it is about the boys not getting along on turf that is not my house. I should rephrase that. I don't know what it is about Dylan misbehaving and picking on Matthew all of the time outside of our house. It is absolutely insane.

My mil lives in a duplex, and the other side became vacant so my sil moved in the other side. Oh lord, I see this turning into trouble. It is bad enough that the spare bedroom at my mil's is really a room for Dylan. He has an abundance of toys there, and just too much stuff that really shouldn't be there. Now with him living right next door..you would think that he wouldn't need all of that stuff there, but I am wrong.

Matthew can't touch a single thing over there without Dylan freaking out. I then have to always play the fair card and always jump in when things get out of hand. Matthew isn't doing anything wrong, but yet I feel like I have to be the referee...all of the while Dylan is getting empty threats from Michelle to share or he won't get this, or that..and then all of a sudden he has a popsicle in is mouth. Such a great reward for being a turd and not sharing, or insisting on taking things away from Matthew when it is clear Matthew is having a good time and is being a good boy.

Again I will say I am not mother of the year. I have alot to work on in my own techniques..but I do not allow the abundance of sugar in my house that my nephew gets. It amazes me.

I don't understand why this kid is such an angel when he comes to play at my house with Matthew when my sil isn't there. He is always so good, and listens and says please and thank you and knows that when he takes something he isn't supposed to, he is to give it back and say he is sorry. Maybe he is scared of me? I can't figure it out. But add his mother into the situation, and things get crazy. Part of me thinks when we are all together that Dylan is convinced that Matthew might want to nurse off of my sil..which would never ever happen..but maybe that is why he gets so territorial? I just wish it would stop. And now my sil wants to send my nephew to Matthew's new daycare. NOOOOOO!

It didn't work the first 2 times, lets stop while we are ahead. I don't want this child following my son from daycare to daycare..they don't need to go to the same place. Let them have a break from eachother already!

Rant over.
