My normal healthy beautiful boy has suddenley turned into the devil. For the last few weeks he seems to be getting angry and frustrated at everything and lashing out by hitting or kicking (but only family, me my husband or his 19 month old sister). He is nice and even timid around other children letting them take his toys that hes been playing with.
Weve tried the nice approach telling him its not nice and hurts and please dont do it. Weve tried the naughty step and now we are taking a toy away for every time he hits us and giving him it back if he does something nice for someone else BUT!!!!!! nothing seems to work.
Im at the end of my tether and starting to feel and get angry with him which is not the aanswer.
If anyone has any advice please let me know. Is there a miracle cure to get my beautiful boy back. i hate all the conflict but hitting is not acceptable.
Thanks donna
