Dear adensmomma06, Children live what they learn. So now it’s time to teach him by good role modelling. After all someone showed him to throw things, yell and hit…biting is normal and it is usually at a time when they are frustrated. It’s their way of communicating when something is wrong. When does he do these behaviours? When you say no? No to what? Lets say he just had supper and desert and now he wants more desert and you say no. He will start to scream yell etc. This is time for the time out chair. For the first little while you will have to keep placing him on the chair until he gets the message that when you say no with an explanation while you have gotten down on his level in a calm and mature voice, no is no. There is no room to give in…the minute you give in to his demands because it’s easier then having to do proper parenting you will see the behaviours arise all over again. The thing to remember is he has been taught these behaviours and it’s now time for you to teach proper role modelling and most of all consistency. Sue…good luck

The rule of thumb for how long time out should be is one minute for every year of the childs life. So Aden should get 2 minute time outs until his third birthday. Aden’s momma just needs to take a 20 minute time out for herself when daddy gets home. It’s hard being a stay at home mom.

Answer #3

I think you’re going through what they call “ the terrible 2’s”

Answer #4

Every child goes through the bitting stage, the yelling and hitting …you need to not yell at him when you are trying to discipline him…believe me I know. Put him in time out and let him know why he is in trouble. I know its hard I have been through that…if he is around other kids that act like that then I suggest you distant them fast!

Answer #5

I dont mean to go against how you raise your son of anything but really the way I see it you son is one of those who Time out doesnt work. Normally I would say pat him on the wrist not hard enough leave a mark but hard enough to let him know that he is being bad but you dont hit him and I respect that. When he throws tantrums put him in time out for about 5 minutes and ignore his cries. Eventually with time his behaviour may or may not improve. If it doesn’t I really suggest a bigger punishment for him.

Answer #6

well, he’s a boy! all boys have to bite everything and everyone in this age! this is something I see in all babies I know!! and it might go by the time! or it might get worse!! if he behaves well, get him something he likes! but DON’T scream at him!! the 1st 7 years of a child’s life (1-7) you play with him/her, the next 7 years (7-14)you base them, hit them, teach them, talk to them about life, etc. the last 7 years (14-21) you be friends with them! it’s true! but don’t hit them too strong!! lol

Answer #7

Answer #8

time out might work??!?!

Answer #9

I do put him in time out but I’ve been going about it the wrong way. I have been putting him in his bed instead of a chair.

Answer #10
