Momma's I Need Help And Advice. Ever Since We Brought Baby Girl Home From The NICU He Has The Urge To Want To Hit, Scratch, & Pinch Her. I Feel So Bad For My Baby Girl Because Every Scar She Has Was Made By Her Brother. Every Time He Gets Near Her She Turns His Way And Starts Crying. Every Time He Hits Her I Tell Him That He Shouldn't Do That, One Time My Husband Even Spanked Him Because He Hit Her So Hard Her Face Swolled Up. I Don't Want To Raise My Kids Afraid Of Us, I Don't Want To Hit Him Every Time He Hits Her. Idk What To Do... Have You Ever Been Through This Situation If Yes What Did You Do ???
@jessica.deshields, Ive tried it but ok my opinion he's still too little to understand about time out, If i turn away he gets what I put away or he starts playing if he's the one on time out
@chibiytino, I think so too but I spend more time with him than with her.
Allow him to help with doing things for her i.e. Getting diapers for changing or showing him how to be gentle with her
I would start by time out or taking away a favorite item. Put the favorite item in time out and if that doesn't do the trick put him in time out. When they are so little hitting them for hitting won't teach much but make them more aggressive.
@shewillbegr87, & @chelli, thanks ladies & he ties to help but he's to little to know when I tell him to bring me a diaper or wipes I have to point and take him to that item and sometimes he just doesn't want to help and gets mad and goes away & I spend More time with him because she sleeps all night and during the day she sleeps 3-4 hours wakes up eats and goes straight back to sleep so I just don't understand
