My 16 month old DS has taken to hitting me and his 4 month old little sister in the past few days. I've tried my hardest to give lots of attention to him, and I do, and I praise him all the time for being good etc.
I know he is still very young and doesn't realise yet what he is doing is wrong but how do you handle it? Smaking is pointless as it's not teaching him anything. The naughty step he's probably to young for??
Is this normal behaviour at this age? Do I just sit it out for the next few weeks?
