I know on 7 Sharp last night they yet again helped to make me feel like a shit parent by talking about forcing a child to do something younger than they should. Please understand the only way Edward wants to even talk to us about anything is if it involves what he enjoys.
List of Edward hobbies;
Alphabet
Numbers
Rainbows
Solar System
Trampoline
Water play
Sand play
Swinging
Playing on the piano
Playdough
Likes watching peppa pig, Elmo, Bumble Bee Kids and pingu.

Did I say alphabet?
On long car trips from about 3 months old if we stopped singing the alphabet song Edward would scream the car down. Other songs were not OK, but the alphabet to different tunes were acceptable.
I have never seen a parent manage to force a toddler to do anything other than when I have seen videos of autism ABA therapy (and we are not going there) and abusive situations and Edward is not being abused.....he runs this house most of the time
Anyway thank you for letting me vent.
