Does anyone have tips on how to make my 4 year old listen? He refuses to stay in a room I tell him to when I’m cooking and he refuses to do any thing he is told then when I stick him in his room he screams non stop for my mother he can’t be doing that because I live in an apartment and they will call the cops I just can’t handle it anymore

I would baby proof and then give him free range. Or sometimes I'll let my own 4 year old help cook. If my daughter is in another room I'll put the baby monitor in there to hear her but other than that I've baby proofed enough that she can be alone in another room

@mrs.dahlin sorry for being blunt.

it’s not being blunt it’s being rude good for you that you have a child that listens and don’t have 2 disabilities. Learn compassion or you will end up losing your job🤷🏽♀️

I'm sorry that I offended you it honestly was never my intention. I have plenty of compassion which is why I educated myself and went to school for as long as I did. So I could help children...like my daughter who has a speech disability of her own.You should take a deep breath. I really hope you address these needs with his therapist instead of a bunch of strangers on the internet. They'll be able to help him so much better with his needs.

Wish I could help you, but my son does the same exact thing

Are you able to maybe set him up with an activity close by? Then you can cook in peace but still can supervise. Coloring, playdough, puzzle, blocks, whatever will keep him busy!

can you sit him on a highchair and table and have him eat his favorite snack?

Give him two options of your choice let him choose so that way he thinks he's making a decision but its really you making them works every time
