I have a 19 month old son who seems to be unable to play alongside other children of similar age to him without going up to them and pulling their hair or pushing them or trying to pinch them on the face. I don't know where he picked up this behaviour or why but it has been going on for several months now and is not getting any better. I tell him no each time and apologise to the parents but he is too young to understand what he is doing is wrong. It makes it very difficult to go to playgroups etc. as I constantly have to follow him round to avoid any of these things happening.
I was wondering if anyone else has expereienced similar behaviour from their children and if so are there any helpful hints on how to deal with this.
