Help, my 15 month ds is being classed as a bully!
Recently at nursery I have had reports from his care worker to say that he has been having lots of time-out as he has started head butting other children if he can't get the toys off them. He has also kicked his care worker when she told him 'no' to something he was doing wrong.
Is this normal for a child this age? Or, is there an underlying problem that I seem to be missing? I am worried he is going to become a bully and not socialise with other children as well and I'm not sure how I should be dealing with it. He is a sweet natured boy generally and (apart from one occasion this week where he threw and broke the cat bowl for some attention -although he gets enough attention being our 1st) he hasn't shown any other signs of 'naughtiness' and is usually a happy little chap who plays quite contentedly on own and with other friends children. Any suggestions or advice would be hugely welcome.
