Of course I do not speak of myself but of DS.
DS is 3 and a half and he plays VERY roughly. Today the nursery teacher said he spent all day pushing children and was not even aware that they didn't like it (second time I get this news). At that point a girl came with his father and said something to him, on his turn he asked something to the teacher to which she answered "Yes x (ds) pushed her". So I apologized to both dad and daughter.
I feel terrible, I do not excuse him, he can be quite agressive. On top he is very strong and tall, he looks like a 5 year old.
Las time I ask the teacher for advice, she said to point out to him children's reactions every time so he gets some awareness of other people's feelings. I've tried that with no results so far.
At home he is the same with his 2 year old brother. They do love each other, but DS1 does not want to know about being gentle, sometimes he is so full of energy that he looks like is going to explode. He jumps from everywhere and physically I cannot restrain him.
A few people have told me that some exercise could help him to realease all his energy, blah blah.
What do you think? Anything else to help calm him down?
PS He does not have fizzy drinks!
