I moved to the area last year and so far have only made a few friends through the toddler group I've been going to. 1 girl was really nice to me from the start and has a dd the same age as my ds (18 months). So over the last few months I've been seeing a lot of her and we get on really well.
The problem is that her dd is so aggressive to my ds. She bites him, pushes him over, hits him, pulls his hair etc etc. My friend does tell her off but this doesn't stop her doing the same thing again five minutes later.
I don't know what to do. My ds gets very upset by this every time we see them, but I've noticed that after visiting them he can be aggressive (biting, hitting etc). I don't want him to learn that this sort of behaviour is acceptable, but how do I stop him from copying her?
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do? I don't want to stop seeing my friend but I'm really worried what affect her dd's behaviour is having on my ds. Help!!
