My 4 year old is about to finish preeschool in June, he will be turning 5 years old in July. Before preeschool, he never had a real playdate or really did much. (He is my only son) He has his good and bad days, he is very talkative, loving and extremely smart! (as his teacher says) :-) But he has issues participating in class activities, small things like washing his hands or choosing a spot on the table. He is NOT always like that. He has been doing much better lately, but he did have an issue today (he is sick with a cold though) I am gonna be honest, I do not set that many rules for him and let most things slide, and that could be part of the issue, I had a big talk with him and he promised to do better but I was in tears for hours today about this, to hear that he doesn't enjoy activities in school :( I want to help him be a better person,he is already got a kind heart and a brilliant mind but his actitud gets him in trouble. What can I do to help him enjoy school and be ready for kindergarden? Also he has a step brother (11 years old) who is adhd and fights with him a lot, which ruins his week! We are looking for help with that but I want a happy little biy at home and at school. He doesn't give me the same trouble at home. Please help! Thank you in advance!!
