since my dd was born in may my ds has bit and hit her to get my attention if i am talking to someone else. i have various things i do to try and prevent this and i do not make afuss of his behaviour. i say that i don't like him hurting her and ask him to apologise, time out does not work as he does it more and more. he now pushes other people's children over or hits them, he does this occasionally at groups but most often if i have afriend and their child over. i am at my wits end and am thinking about not meeting up with anyone or going to any more groups. the prob is that i get depressed easily and am worried about becoming isolated. does anyone else's child do this? what can i do? i do spend one to one time with him everday. any advice would be much appreciated.
