15 month old pushing and throwing things

[malachismum]

Hello. I hope you can offer some advice. My 15 month old son throws everything, he does it with such force ie swings his arm and lets go at the last minute! When I have other babies over he throws at them and walks up and pushes them over. He has always been much more physically advanced and is very tall, my mum seems to think he is bored. He prefers the company of 3+ year olds. I am taking things off him and replacing with a ball and if he pushes or throws at a baby, I move him away and sit him on his own with a book. Does this sound right? I feel like I cant trust him with babies his age.Thank you Jess

At last!!! Someone else with the same problem as me!
Ds2 is 18 mths and ever since he started walking (12/13mths) everything gets thrown! This morning I've had to remove god knows how many toys from him. We do the same, substitute hard toys etc for soft balls but still everything gets thrown. (This includes food aswell, hence why I end up feeding him mostly).
I was actually thinking of posting about this this morning lol.
I have no advice, but I'd be grateful for some too!
We've tried getting down to his level and explaining why he should'nt throw, taken the offending toys away, time out, even shouting. Absolutely nothing works! Oh and he's obsessed about banging hard toys on my lovely wooden table

Snap about the banging too. He used to share everything but now refuses. I dont want people to feel nervous of him around the children. He such a kind boy normally.

Yep! Mine hates to share. He's still a sweety but this throwing, banging etc does me in sometimes lol

Bump

i am having similar trouble with my little princess (18 months) especially with smaller babies, will walk up to them and cuddle them, then slap or pinch. i tell her firm NO and explain why, if she does it again i move her away and distract her. all mums i spoke to at groups have all been there and say its just a stage.

Thanks.I didnt think giving him something in return sounded right either? My mum runs a nursery and has completed her degree and it says to do this, she thought it was a bit weird too. We bought him some more challenging toys like shape sorters etc and he seems a lot less bored and the throwing has calmed down although he throws when he gets frustrated which is completely different.I am saying NO firmly and taking the item out of his hands. As for the pushing I will say NO and explain and if he does it again Ill take him away. Thanks
