Today was a great day. Everything went well. Theo listened to pretty much everything I said during the day until the end - which is when the melt down occurred because he would not wash his hands before bed time. In the end he went on strike and I had to make him. I also yelled at him in a vain attempt to get him to cooperate - which was useless. I know I had to stand my ground and make him cooperate. But I felt bad. I felt like a failure and a bad mom. He's asleep now. I will have to talk to him about this tomorrow. I feel terrible and sad when he cries - even if he cries because he is mad.
Most days this kind of thing doesn't happen. I feel like I have a great relationship with Theo. He's a wonderful son. But tonight was hard to deal with.
