Hello, new here so apologies if this is in the wrong place
To cut to the chase, collected DS from holiday club today and staff said he'd been wonderfully behaved all day. Walking out towards my car down a busy Street and he fights to let go of my hand but I explain that it's dangerous and he must walk with mummy. Screaming and shouting at me to go away and that he hates me. Passers-by looking and I want to die....calmly telling him that we will be at the car soon and that he must walk sensibly because of traffic. Continues to shout I hate you, I love daddy not you. Tears in my eyes, pick him up to get to the car, he kicks me and refuses to get in, have to manhandle him into seat to strap him in. Bites me. Kicks hell out of passenger seat back. I drive off and all the way home he tells me I'm an awful mummy, he wants to kill me and I can go and get lost'!!!
Fight once again when we get outside house because he doesn't want to come in doors. Screaming on grass verge near house. Neighbours looking. Want to die!! Grab him by hand and get him to front door, he sits down. Get into house and he's saying awful things to me. I slapped him as a last resort and now he's sobbing. I feel like a terrible person. I actually love him like all the world and beyond! He has everything he desires (I don't mean spoilt but he is very well cared for and we dote on him iyswim) and I know I'm a devoted mum to him so why does he do this to me?
He's always been strong willed and is hard work at times. Generally well behaved and always polite to other people. Have had a few behavioral incidents at nursery with him biting and hitting other children during squabbling over toys etc. staff say he's well on track for his age with his learning so no worries there.
I just don't know why he has these awful outbursts, please help!!!!!!
