DS is 4 almost 5
He's always had an issue with going for a wee
He knows he needs to go but holds on (as I think most kids do)
My problem is he's becoming very aggressive and violent towards me and rude when he does and the bigger he gets the harder this is to handle. He hit me all the way home from school today yelling at me and then went to his room screaming and throwing toys around. It was a full on temper tantrum
He's like Jekyll and Hyde - before going and after going. After - he's lovely again
I'm sure some of today is tiredness but this is what always happens... he's hitting and screaming me so often until he has gone
I tell him to go very firmly but I'm also unable to physically wrestle him to go - he's very strong and I'm actually getting punched in the face and bruises if I try and he will rush at me and punch me when I'm telling him
This isn't normal is it? What can I do?
No other needs so not like it's ASD which would make a little more sense to me if it was. I don't see anyone else's kids behave like mine without other needs and it's only when he needs a wee. Number 2s aren't an issue
It's gone on ever since he was potty trained which he did really early (2nd birthday he'd done it by) and he happily trained... he decided to and was very proud of himself etc
But I can't cope with it. I'm bruised...
It's not just with me... he does it to anyone (rudeness) but I think it's only me he's actually hitting
