coolblu Have you asked him the reason why he doesn't like to go too the school? I know when my son started to go too school he hated it as well. Then he finely told me he was being picked on by the other children in the school.

coolblu There are a few things you can do for him to pick up his toys.. Explain to him that if he doesn't pick up his toys then you'll set a timer for 5 minutes for him to pick them up and once it runs out he needs to sit down on the couch or chair while up pick the...

coolblu Why can't the child decide if they want it done when they get older and not the parents. I let my girls make that decision on their own when they 6 and 8 years old.
