A 30 yo man that we only knew of as her friend took her away for an off-the-grid, no cell service camping trip her first weekend in college He lives in our hometown so It was quite opportunistic of him to drive 7 hours to whisk her away from her first college weekend.

4 Year Old's Recent, Drastic Behavior change....what's Going On?

My 4 year old son is generally a great kid and a joy to be around; however, this past few days his behavior has been out of control. It seems like his personality has changed and he's a completely different person! I am at my wits end with his behavior and need help on how to get him back on track. Just last week he was being extremely sweet; "I love you mommma," random hugs and kisses, very few tantrums, great manners- asking politely, being patient, listened to me when I asked him to do something, etc. This week has been completely...
