Oh my goodness, yes. Exhausted.
I've just recently found this forum and I'm so glad for it. DS4 can be intense with his knowledge seeking and his need to be physically connected to me. Today alone he was elated to discover basic math equations that would lead him to -1. This happened in the midst of electrical engineering play (thank you Snap Circuits!). He insists I be RIGHT THERE. The whole time. Every second. If I walk away, he crumbles. But I have other obligations (DS.5, work, etc.) and can't always be right there with him every minute. We've been working on it... but it's exhausting.
Since I'm new to all of this I feel like my free time is consumed by trying to understand how to best approach learning, trying to understand where DS4 falls in the realm of normal development, and understand the school system here which we haven't even started yet. My head is going to explode.
Thank you for posting this, Ocelot.
