I need some help! My oldest is 5.5 years old. He is just about to complete VPK (he has an October birthday, and the cutoff in my state is Sep. 1st). Lately he just doesn't listen to anything I say. Timeouts don't work anymore, spending extra time with just him doesn't work, even his VPK teachers say he isn't listening very well there either. He either just doesn't listen at all or he flat out says no.

For context we did just have a new baby 8 weeks ago (our fourth boy). So I'm sure that's contributing to some of it, but I can't trust him to behave anywhere right now and it's wearing me down. If anyone has suggestions to help please share them!
