NC for this as I don't want this linked to some other threads.
I need some help please with what is appropriate consequences for 2 year old DS (well, 2 next month).
He's started getting wilfully naughty where he hasn't ever really before and I want to start creating some firm boundaries.
For example, he ran off yesterday when at a park (not a play park) and ignored me when I shouted him back. Unfortunately he was running towards a stream so I had to run after him and he thought it was really funny. As a consequence he went back in the buggy and we came home. But he did it again at a friends house in the afternoon.
He's taken to throwing food on the floor at dinner time. Today he wasn't allowed more melon which he was asking for as a result.
He's started hitting and kicking me when I'm trying to change him. My instinct would be to put him down on the floor but that's what he wants, and he'd happily run off which is somewhat counter productive.
Any and all ideas welcome - also any recommendations for reading!
