Today I've hit the peak and my 3 year old he's pushed me to tears. I've had to put him into his bedroom and come into mine to cry.
We have a 3 year old who turned 3 in sept and a 3 month old.
Over the last few weeks my 3 year olds behavior has really escalated the not listening has hit a whole new low he doesn't behave at all when we're at home or listen to what we say.
He seems to be better when it's just me but when dad comes home from work at 3 he turns into the devil shouts at me hits me, scratches me if I held his hands he'd try and bite me never hits dad.
He had an episode of hitting last week at nursery but hasn't happened since now he's abit handsy ( there words) and scratching. He's been potty trained for a few months now but he's had a accident every day this week and I'm sure it's on purpose.
Ive got a timer for the step or time out doesn't work, Ive got a reward chart which he isn't bothered about, ive got a happy or sad bear watching so if he's being naughty the sad bear is there and he had to me good for the happy bear which sort of works but not for long.
I'm wondering weather to call the health visitor as today I feel like bashing my head against the wall. I love him but I feel that my baby is just being left and so I can try to reason with a highly strung three year old.
Thank you if you managed to get to the end. I don't know if I'm looking for advice or reassurance I thought it was going to be easier out of terrible 2s but this is the terrible and I feel like the worse parent in the world.
