Hi,
My DS is turning 10 months this week and I am seeking a little bit of advice. He is a very excitable little boy, which frequently turns to forms of scratching/slapping/thumping/pinching/pulling. I appreciate that he doesn't know these hurt and he is very young, but it has been going on for a while now and I wondered at what age should I do something other than just ignoring him?
I have tried telling him off by saying 'no' firmly and holding his arm/hand away but he just giggles.
It isn't a major thing, but I am having to explain to people when they hold him to watch for any offending limbs!
Thanks
