My ds is the sweetest little guy, all blond curly hair and blue eyes - but he has the most volcanic temper. When he was a couple of days' old he got so cross that I had no milk the mw thought he was ill and got the paed. he's been the same since - if I put him in his buggy he goes into such a rage, he screams so much he can be sick. He wants to be on the floor all the time, but today I picked him up and he went into another rage, flung his head back and nearly broke my nose. He is incredibly strong and weighs nearly as much as my 3 yr old dd2.
What can I do for now and in the immediate future, to help keep him calm and from hurting himself and others? And what about the long term, both as an older child and teen? Dh is aware he might not set the best example and wants to set things right - any book ideas?
TIA!
