Wee difficult child had a major tantrum yesterday over picking up some blankets he had used to make a tent.
The afternoon sitter was with him and said he was playing in a "fort" on the floor and had wet his pants. She asked him to help her pick up so she could clean it up. It sent him into a tizzy the likes of which we haven't seen in a long while.
He has a door to his bedroom that retracts into the wall. He knocked it off the tracks and had it at such an angle that it was wedged into the door frame and neither husband nor I could budge it. We had to take the rollers off and take the door trim off to get it out.
His dresser is a 4 drawer solid oak chest of drawers with an 18" old-style tube tv on it, along with a lamp and some of his "collectibles" He shoved the fully loaded dresser at least 2 feet. The tv hit a wall shelf and slid across the dresser, knocking the lamp off the other side onto the floor.
He emptied his art cabinet and threw the contents of several boxes of crayons everywhere. He took the pictures off of his walls and literally shredded them, including pictures of him with the SpEd teacher that he loves. There are little pieces of paper and photos from the pictures all over his room.
I never did find his pillow.
The sitter ended up having to restrain him on his bed, but said he was fine when he finally calmed and compliant and remorseful when he helped her clean up the mess. He was fine the rest of the evening, tho he did wet himself again around 9pm.
It was a dandy.
