Why is my two and a half year old behaving this way ? Is something wrong with him ?

He's turning into a menace.

I keep getting reports from nursery that he hits, pushes, wants to go first all the time, snatches.

Sometimes he doesn't listen.

He winds up his older sister a lot too.

He seems to find it fun.

What can I do ? ?

One thing I always did was listen to DD if she was unhappy in nursery and I would (if possible) move her. I did this twice and best possible thing. Also gives your child faith that if they hate it you will sort it. Don't worry about rod for own back and all that. You just want them well looked after, content and then able to transition to school.

This.

I had this with my son. Before he was two. The nursery made me feel awful. They were describing his 'behaviour issues' 'delayed speech'. Honestly I was devastated. At home he wasn't the same at all.

So I moved him. And to be fair he started with some of the same feedback but their reaction was much more reassuring. No suggestion of an issue just told he how they'd react to him. Tracked his behaviour and found him to be better with older children. Moved him up early and he's never looked back. He used to break his heart going in and now he barely says bye mummy!
