I have two children that are 17mo apart... now that my son, who turns 1 next week just starting walking - my 2 yr old daughter is pushing him down and constatntly hurting him... any good ideas on how to punish for consequences without losing patience... this boy has lots of bruises now.. I'm not sure if shes jealous of the attention he is getting now and/or that she may think in her mind that she is trying to protect him when in fact she is hurting him... This is a girl who pushes to the last straw all the time.. she is def in terrible twos... yeah for me...
but at the other end of the spectrum- she is completly affectionate and extremely sensitive if you yell or hurt her feelings, I mean cry like shes lost her best friend, and she even pats my back and says its ok, its ok....any advice?

our number one rule is that we dont' hurt eachother and i treat it VERY seriously. when my oldest or my younger son hurt eachother (unless it's a very clear accident) he gets REMOVED. depending on how upset i am or how drastic it was it's either a time out or a sent to your room. they stay there until MOM calms down. i also very very sternly (sometimes yelling, but i try hard not to yell) tell them that we do NOT hurt people in our family, we are a nice family and that means we treat eachother nicely.
if she cries, that's not a bad thing. sometimes they have to cry! |

| have you tried removing your son with you and leaving her alone? when you hit you can't be around people. i would also lengthen the time if it's a repeated behavior --- as in, if you hit once, 2 minutes, hit again, 5 minutes, hit again15 minutes. . . and keep going until it hurts enough to stop the behavior. |

| I have 2 things you can try no 1 tell her no very sternly tell her why if she does it again make her sit in a chair alone for about 2 r 3 min.If that doesnt work try to spank her hand w your 2 fingers and tell her no and tell het why you spanked her hand.Men are too strong.They cant.Thats what I do to Lexi.She was trying to take off the plastic protectors for the wall sockets.Then she throws things at her bro and sis.She slaps sometimes when she gets frustrated.Normal toddler behavior.Hope this helps. |
