So my boyfriend has a son who’s 5 and I have children of my own as well so I’m not new to parenting.. anyways this child is “bad” I hate to put it that way but idk what else word to use, he screams and yells if he’s not getting his way, whines and cries if you say almost anything to him or try to play around with him.. and does not listen at all!! It doesn’t matter what we do, time out, a spanking, talking, absolutely nothing!! I’m so fed up with this that I do not even want to be around him because I try to not get involved with the discipline part since he’s not mine, my boyfriend doesn’t want to confront his mom because he’s scared she will not let him come back but I just do not think this is acceptable at all and something needs to be done before this child gets in school because he’s out of control! I’m not trying to be rude but if someone could shed some light here it would be appreciated

And please do not comment on the spanking part because he is not hurt at all and that’s a last resort.
