My little man is 3.5. He is a lovely, cheeky, happy and complex little boy, with additional physical needs. He is very strong and active all the same, very outdoorsie. He can and will sit and concentrate well on activities, books etc, but sometimes he is just away with the fairies. Walking along he is looking behind him at whoever is there, when eating (or not eating as the case may be) he is facing the other way on his chair, barely acknowledges his food, mind somewhere else. He really doesn't listen to me at all. I would say he's cheeky rather than badly behaved. He doesn't really cry unless he's hurt, he doesn't tantrum and has a lovely nature. It's just so hard sometimes getting him to do anything. I don't feel like im describing the situation well. Just rest assured therapy, feeding (especially self feeding) and other complex additional needs/chronic illnesses are making life very hard and very stressful. I'm so tired and when he doesn't listen to me or focus on what we need to get done frustration bubbles over. Has anyone had a similar sounding child? Im not sure he'll ever get his head out of the clouds.
