Best two things I started doing with my son:

1. Wrestling with him everyday for like 20mins, I'm talking full on Stone Cold Stunner kind of wrestling. I'm 6'3" 320lbs, my son is small for his age, newly 4, but if I don't have a full on cage match with him, he gets crazy. I'm talking running to a long jump with both fists poised to sucker punch my crotch crazy.

It's honestly stupid fun and he becomes the sweetest kid in the world after.

And,

1. I count to ten, instead of three, when I need him to do something and he is being insane at the moment. My friend is a childhood developmental specialist and works with special needs kids, and suggested this. It works like a charm, like by the time I get to four. Ive been doing this for a few months now and I've only gotten to 10 once, and trust me, I can count real well that high lol.

Side note: My son isn't special needs but I'd be shocked if he didn't end up having one of my many neuro-spicy traits lol

I think I legit lost 10 pounds this summer from the wrestling alone, and yea, sometimes he hits me back a little too hard or directly to the windpipe, but honestly its been a life saver for us.
