DS1 (3.4) is driving me bonkers, he keeps pushing and hitting DS2 (11mo) and I have tried everything. I have sat and calmly explained (he understands), have taken him to his room, taken favourite toy away but he won't stop. He could be sitting on the sofa watching something quietly, jump off and kick the baby over and jump back on. Even when he is out and about - we went to an airshow on Sunday and DS2 was sat on the grass and DS1 stuck a tent peg in his ear and cut him. Every time he walks past him he 'accidently' sticks his hand out to bash him over. Every drink he gets as soon as my back is turned he is tipping over his toys, same with his cereal. I cannot keep up with it all. I can't have a shower during the day because I cannot leave them alone, I can't take baby to the bathroom with me because DS2 kicks the door and screams, I have to do everything with baby on my hip or watching them like a hawk.
I don't know how to deal with his behaviour, esp. the hitting DS2.
