Since my baby started crawling I think she's been hit or pushed over at least five times a day by my son every single day. I've tried a variety of approaches but I am hopelessly lacking in consistency. I've done time outs twice and regretted them. I've done a woolly huggy, 'that's not kind, I can see you feel angry...' Kind of approach most of the time, but none of the things I do make any difference. I try to keep them apart but she won't tolerate not being in the middle of his games messing everything up for him, and I can't keep her out of reach all the time without making her massively frustrated. Any ideas welcome. They're both at home with me all the time. DS1 is unlikely to go to preschool for another year due to us relocating.
