I have a just turned 4 year old boy in my care, he has been with me for 2 years. He's been a pretty well behaved child. Normally on days he acts out I can tell what its from, like long weekend, weekend at dads ect. However, lately he's been extremely whiny over everything, and has been very defiant. Everything you ask of him he whines or cries and when he has to be removed from group which is not "time out" it's sitting in book center for a relax time he just cries and screams.
He also does not like doing preschool activities, he just whines and cries and says he can't ect. I don't force them to do activities but he has a choice to do them or sit at the table or sit in book center.
I could really use some help with how others may handle a child like this please.
I try talking with him after his crying and he's calm but it goes right back to it later. Mom doesn't really have much to say other than he's been like that at home and hope it's just a phase.
