My 2 yr old 3 v.soon has become rather aggressive?
Answer:
hes being normal and demanding, just dont give in to him if he wants something his own way.
he'll begin to learn all this shouting when he goes nursery anyway.
just tell him its wrong and make up a chart a week for him and give him starts. say gold are good, red are average and blue are naughty. and if he gets more gold stars a week you'll treat him. if he doesnt you have to be firm and stick to the rules.
kids like playing games so everything has to be like a game to them.
people say that if you treat a child every week its not good because he'll demand, but every once in a while and especially with behaviour, he needs to see that he gets treated for good behaviour and not for bad behaviour for him to learn.
lol i know its hard but he will grow out of it if things dont improve speak 2 your health visitor or u could have a teen asbo on your hands!
He;s just in his terrible twos, he will grow out of it. My son started hitting the kids at nursery and pulling girls hair but he grew out of it when he went to school full time. Just keep being a good mum. ;o)
This is known as the terrible 2's! I've got 3 kids, the youngest is 3, they are just enforcing their independence. The best thing which I've tried (and it works) is to first warn your son that his language/behavior is not acceptable, then if he continues, put him to his room for a timeout (one minute for each year of his life). When the time is up, go to him and make him apologize and give him a kiss and hug. He will soon realize that there are rules! Also praise his good behaviour so he isn't just getting in trouble all the time. Good luck!
First of all make sure you are not using that kind of behavior with him and are not saying anything you do not want repeated.
Secondly you have to be firm in your displicinary choices. If you give him a time out (experts recommend 1 minute per year of age), you need to let him stick it out. Reguardless if he screams, crys, or has a fit he must stay in time out until it is up. Also be sure you are giving him behavior choices, do not give him ultimatumums or things you dont have. Also reward good behavior with praise, and let him know when he is being inappropriate. But do not use value statements like good and bad, state what he did that you like or dont like.
I hope this helps.
First of don't panic. More importantly don't let him see you are phased by his behaviour and the hardest thing is try not to lose it with him. Believe it or not this is them testing the water and pushing boundaries. Ther are individuals and experimenting with their feelings and at this age don't really know how to.
I hate to tell you that his behaviour will get worse due to the other children at playschool. Not all parents have the same set of rules of children, so some get away with shouting out and being rude, others don't. Stay firm and you will get through it. Not all bad behaviour leads to teenage ASBO's.
He is just learning these things from other kids. It is believe it or not , normal. Just keep doing what your doing, reinforcing that at times he isn't acting nice. Reward his good behavior more, with stickers and such. Don't place a lot of focus on the other behavior once you have corrected him. You'll get through this and so will he.
Be firm and consistant with discipline. If he misbehaves give him a consequence like a time out every time he acts out.
Be sure to praise his good behavior often. If he is friendly and polite tell him you like the behavior he is displaying.
It is a normal stage for two year olds to go through. The change won't happen over night but he will learn how to behave if you are consistant.
Good luck!
He is reacting normally, finding his confidence having experienced the outside world. However, "Catch them doing something right" is one way of dealing with unwanted behaviour i.e. you ignore the unwanted and praise/treat them for good behaviour. This means you can avoid always being the bad guy saying no, don't do that, apologise, etc. etc. For extremes of course there is the naughty step but this is only effective if used sparingly so they realise that the behaviour in question really WAS bad! My children responded to explanation. So, if they'd shouted at the stranger in the street I would crouch down to their level, take their arms and tell them that what they said had hurt the person's feelings as they were only being kind and he/she must now say he/she is sorry. Praise them if they apologise nicely then move on. They don't come with rule books so you have to do what you think works. Good luck, they'll appreciate you more for being firm.
always stay calm and in control , say to him this behaviour is a no then back up your words with action ... to a) re-enforce the message and b) he knows their are boundaries and that behaviour is unacceptable. try not to make a big deal about it just make the point quietly and put on yr ' mummy does not approve face' ..if this fails then it could partly be down to his diet , check the labels make sure theres only the good stuff ( no MSG which is unlikely but check ). other than that make sure yr positive if he does what you asked of him .good luck
