My DS is nearly 2yo and is suddenly challenging all the time
Pushing other children, kicking screaming tantrums, sometimes for a reason, sometimes not
Refusing to sit nicely
Throwing toys
He's at nursery ft and they have commented in the pushing over the last couple of weeks too
They and us respond in same way ie on his eyeline, that's not kind, hurting other people makes them sad- he seems to enjoy te sorry and cuddle bit too which doesn't help
I had a bit of child care guilt and wondered if he was feeling neglected but I can safely say after a week on holiday with him there is no change in our side lots of cuddles and praising good, ignoring stuff and choosing battles etc
He has always been strong willed and is fairly ahead in vocab, developmentally advanced at same time as behaviors worsened- linked? clutches straws
Is this normal terrible two stuff
What should I respond with
When does it end
If not normal who do I raise it with- hv?
Thanks
