The Official TFK Father's Issues Thread. I don't know how they do it

Maybe he is ready for a bit of solid food?

He loves it. Sweet potatoes, carrots, butternut squash, bananas. He’s milling it all. But it’s a no no on the bainne.

Lads, anyone got kids who wouldnt take a bottle? The little fella is nearly 6 months and refuses point blank to take a bottle. We’ve tried every bottle around. The little fella even outlasted an eighthour cold turkey period from the draught.

Have you tried giving him a nutribullet?

Ta FP. Haven’t tried it. I’ll be picking this up tomorrow if there’s a boots open. If this works it’ll be more valuable than any other tip you ever gave me!

He’s too young for the mix of fruit and veg so I’m just rubbing them on him like a lotion.

He is better off.

McCabes in Dundrum stock them. Don’t think you can get them in Boots. Most chemists will order them in for you.

Our lad never took to a bottle at all. We tried loads of them. You’re probably better to leave the bottle at this stage as some parents find it really hard to get off the bottle. Our lad eventually took some from this cup and he still uses it a year later

Could your wife express and then feed him that in a bottle? That’s what Mrs Locke did back in the day and it worked.

Done it, still doing it. No dice. He knows what he likes.

Any tips for not losing the temper when your 3 year old is gone bananas?

I tend to find punching the wall out of sight of mother and child tends to help ease the pressure valve somewhat.

Sit them down and explain to them in a calm, logical fashion that their behavior is unacceptable.

Yell her you won’t feed the big monster under her bed, and he’ll get hungry in the middle of the night

Replicate the behaviour like the TV ad, pal. The one where the kid is lying on the ground kicking and screaming in the supermarket and stops once the mother lies down beside him and joins in. That seems like a good tactic to me.

Just ignore it, they will go to sleep soon enough at this time of the day.

KP, the question you proposed was how to keep in control when your kid goes apeshit

sadly mac and a few of his cronies answered the question “what to do when your kid goes apeshit”

on behalf of the forum i apologise
deep breaths, leaving the room, NLP techniques can all be used to keep in control
