I have 2 ds's eldest is 3, youngest is 2 in March. Ds1 was (and still is for the most part) a model child. Ds2 on the other hand is the complete opposite. He bites, hits, throws, screams and doesn't listen to a word we say but to be honest he is very charming with it which has meant that he has got away with a lot in the past (too much I think). So we are at our wits end. He is very bright and understands exactly what we say (i.e. no, reasoning, distraction or whatever) but just laughs and carries on. Shouting definitely doesn't work (nothing fazes him). So we need some ideas please. What do toddlers this age understand? Can anyone recommend a book with ideas?
