being a qualified nursery nurse, nursery owner and parent to a 3year old and 7 year old my advice would be a new invention of velcro suits and velcro walls where when it gets bad stick them to the wall:thumbsup:

i feel your pain and i my view there is no ideal age gap each age comes with its own problems as i keep getting attidued from the 7 year old, even my 6 year old berneese mountain dog has issues

i am moving to nova scotia in may and hoping to get the 7 year old in to summer camp
