Ok here we go. My son is 3 next month. He is lovely and very playful, his speech and understanding is advanced. However he really kicks off when he wants something or he get a in these moods sometimes for no reason at all. He is a toddler yes bit lately he has got more physical when having a tantrum probably since lockdown. He has started throwing some real wobblers, He tells me to go to the time out or fave the wall lol. Yes really lol. I never do the face the wall, he learned that from sister saying that is what they do at school.
He kicks me and pinches me but afterwards he hugs me, kisses me and says sorry. I tell him firmly no,I have taken toys off him and do not give into him. Time out doesn't work he runs and screams. He is more strong willed then his sisters who never hit me at that age or had tantrums like that so I'm hoping this is a short phase.
He just goes for me and I say no hitting, no That is not good. He looks at me and does it again or he hugs and kisses me. Afterwards he says to me ' Mummy I am not screaming anymore and I am sorry so he knows. I am not with his dad anymore but he has started seeing him more regularly. Any advice on strong willed toddler boys? He is also very cuddly,kisses me for no reason and hugs me. I can't even say what triggers him except when he doesn't get his own way. I have noticed lately if I watch him he says, mummy stop watching me and throws a little wobbly. The nursery have also said he has problems with sharing but he doesn't hit anyone else or have any issues at all. He sleeps very well all through the night and he loves books and reading to him. He can sit and watch TV for long periods but not too long, he plays more. Thank you
