It's Life Jim, but not as we know it...

Kinda feels like that round here some times.
All of a sudden, Jayden has decided to revert back to some behaviour that is just beyond any form of reasoning. It's inorganic collection time and so (despite our requests not to do so), he keeps heading out to find new junk to bring home. Some bits aren't so bad and we just ask him to go return them. However, we have also had; the old printer, which he proceeded to take apart, smash the ink cartridges and paint the outside downpipes, himself and his clothes with the ink and an old can of white oil based paint (gone off and lumpy) with which he decided to start painting the back fence (previously-whilst in need of repair and a repaint - dark brown). In the process he ruined a full set of clothes (including new jandals). He then proceeded to tip the entire tin of paint out onto the lawn. He was warned not go to near the paint again and to stay out of the backyard until we had managed to clean some of it up. Yesterday I noticed he was once again covered in paint. I told him off and sent him to his room, only to be told (by him yelling it at me), that it was not the same paint, it was from a different can from a different house!!! - Oh, that makes it allright then!
Along with that, we've had the pipe cleaner stuck into the electrical socket, a full container of powder emptied out in between our dressers (right over the hairdryer and all the plugs) and a new tube of lip balm cut up and dug out with tweezers and smeared everywhere!
I will never be able to say parenting Jayden was boring!!!
