My 22 month old (butter wouldn't melt) son is such a bully, when we attend toddler grps or get togethers he slaps and pinches other children. I remove him from the situation, get down on my knees at his level and tell him that this is unacceptable and if he does it again we will go home, he normally throws himself on the floor and has a paddy occasionally head butts the floor or wall. His bad behaviour seems to come out of nowhere (if it involved a toy I would understand) please help - in garden at present drinking a glass of wine and recently started smoking again - a stressed out mum xx (little man is having a nap at present - bliss) !!!!
