DS, Love him to bits but sometimes he really tests my patience

[Justine2912]

I love my son dearly but dont know if its an age thing hes (2.2) we seem to be having a constant battle with him, at the moment I feel like a punch bag too him, I do tell him that its naughty, hes hurting mummy and daddy etc but all he does is laugh and carry on.

Please tell me this gets easier and I wont be covered in bruises for the rest of my life!!!!

PS He can be a lovely little boy when hes in the mood

My ds went through a few months of hitting us, mainly daddy tbh.
The naughty step seemed to help and he doesn't do it anymore.
He is 2.7 now and I think he probably was about your ds's age when he was doing it.
