Somebody please help! I don't know how best to handle my 2.9 month old little boy. He is very spirited, can be very charming, but after having a girl, is very, very different. He seems so aggressive, turning wooden spoons into guns and shooting at me and his sister, hitting me, his sister and his dad. Shouting "I am going to kill you".
He is rude tells us all to "shut up", calls us "poo-poo".
Written down, it doesn't sound too bad but his sister is quite and passive and although a lot older at 8, he upsets her a lot.
Should I ignore the rudeness and aggression? Will he grow out of it? How best to respond? I take him to the park/playgroup every day, so that he gets a chance to burn off energy. He never watches even cartoon violence.
I find myself missing my lovely newborn baby who has morphed into this terrible toddler!
