DS has been getting himself more and more worked up for the last hour. It started over something small - he would not help his sister clean up the table for lunch. I said I would put his lunch away until he came and helped. After 30 minutes of him refusing to co-operate and getting more and more worked up I said fine, lunch is over now.
Since then he has been screaming, picking up various objects and threatening to hit me with them, spitting, running outside and grabbing rocks and I thought he was going to throw one at the window at one point.
I have not shouted, I have talked calmly to him, I have physically restrained him from hurting me but have not smacked him. I know he must be hungry which will not be helping the situation.
Please help, what can I do with him????
