Meltdown meltdown go away and don't come back another day. Wishful thinking, I know.
Gavin had a ginormous meltdown this evening and the *Lost and Tired *family is still recovering from it. I'll have more on that later. I just needed to purge a bit before I lose what's left of my mind.
I get sooooo sick and tired of having to consider whether or not it's worth it to discipline Gavin because of the inevitable meltdown that will follow. I wish things were simpler and I could just show Gavin what he did wrong and that would be it.
Instead, if I find myself in a situation where I need to discipline Gavin and choose to do so, I have to be ready to deal with the consequences of *my* actions and the entire *Lost and Tired *family pays the price. If you think about it, that's really messed up.
Tonight was one of those nights and I just dread the thought of him getting bigger and stronger and continuing with this behavior.
I know I'm not the only one in this situation and my heart goes out to all of you. Hang in there. I'll try and do the same.
