Get Smart

How do I get my smart mouth unruly four year old to mind?

My son is four years old and super smart. My problem is he won't mind me or anyone else,he has a smart mouth,and is so hyper that I cannot seem to get control of him no matter what I try.If anyone has any answers or advice it would be greatly appreciated.

well it's normal for four-year-olds to be a little terse, but here's what I suggest

-make sure your son hears good language
-make sure if your son watches TV / media it has good language
-make sure that people speaking to your son don't make "smart mouth" remarks... especially if it could be you in response to his. It only encourages it

form a relationship with your son in reading together, talking about a program together, etc. ask if he wants to help cooking, maybe?
if he starts acting rude and will not stop when warned, ignore him and stop anything you're doing for him

---edit-----
for the love of all that is good, this is not a counseling issue unless there is more to this than we are hearing. small children are rude for awhile because they were spoiled as babies and they are being expected to do more things. The most extreme thing I'd suggest is a time-out in his room or in a chair with nothing to do for a few minutes.
