My 3 year old little boy has recently starting hitting this week. He goes to nursery 4 days a week so I think he may of picked it up from here.
Every time he gets frustrated and mad he lashes out at me, he’s always been so good and I have no idea how to deal with this!
My partner shouts which seems to work, my little boy would never hit him, and listens when my partner tells him to stop.
I have tried the talking to him, asking him what’s wrong, I’ve tried explaining how it hurts me, I’ve also tried the shouting method but none of it works. I will also ask him to apologise and he point blank refuses.
This is still new behaviour but I want to find a method to nip this behaviour in the bud as soon as possible. I don’t want to have to rely on my partner for the discipline.
