what am i supposed to do?

Really I want an answer.

Emmett my energetic baby boy is pushing me to my limits

in the past 24 hours he has

put his finger in a light socket and shocked himself
broken a toe nail completely off
thrown a whole thing of granola on the floor
eaten yet another yellow marker (it always yellow)
pulled a whole rack of medicine over at walmart
yelled through Walmart
Screamed through kroger
peed on the bathroom floor (on purpose i think)
Yelled at me

Help!

I can not just hole up in the house.
I have to do the shopping, there is not anyone else to do it.
I have to go to the bathroom, no explanation needed.

Today I loaded the kids and groceries in the car closed the door and stood there for a minute basking in the silence. I knew in the car he was still screaming and Millie was still whining and Summer was I have no clue what but she never stops talking now. So i stood outside the car with my coffee closed my eyes and regrouped.

What is even more frustrating is in museums Emmett is perfect, on historical tours not a peep. He sees a store and he turns into a monster.

I know your not supposed to wish time away but.............

That's true...you could duck tape his hands and mouth. Or, if you don't want people to call the police on you...you could always just keep wishing yourself away! (Who said that is not allowed? Apparently I did not get the parenting memo! Ha!)
