Can you help, I always seem to end up shouting at my son, he just won't do anything at all? What advice would you give.

Okay so you "always" end up shouting at your son. That suggests that you always discipline him by shouting. Personally I hate it when people shout at me, I'm sure you do too. You could go up to your son when you want him to listen, kneel down beside him, (so you get on his level), turn his head gently but frmly so he is looking at you and say to him calmly and authoritively, "I want you to....now, please". Then take him firmly by the hand and lead him to what it is you want him to do. Respect your son for the person he is. Make sure what you are asking your son to do is reasonable, does it need to be done right now or can it wait?
Remember children learn how to interact with others through their teachers, what you teach him now is inevitably the way he will behave to others and you when he is older :)
