any advice here would be more than appreciated.
DS(yr1) has always dealt with his negative emotions ie jealously or anger by hitting out or by doing a sly malicious thing - in order to hurt someone else.
This isn't a regular thing, occurs more when he is tired nowadays, but was very obvious when DD was born. There is a 2 1/2yr gap between them.
We have always been very firm that this is not allowed - and he gets sent to his room after being told that it is not acceptable/not kind thing to do.
However, he is now being picked on by his former gang of friends at school, and this frustration has led to him being involved in 2 horrible incidents of violence towards other children (not in the gang)
I have a meeting with the head on Monday with regards to the latest event, and I just don't know how to help him.
Sorry for the long post.
