Okay everyone I know this is gonna sound crazy but please don't judge just help me my name is Monica and I am pretty much a single mom even though I have a boyfriend that is always gone he is a floor man and is out of time months at a time! Well my 2 year old always changes when his daddy leaves I mean his emotions have gotten so much out of hand he is not my sweet little boy anymore he is mean to me and his little brothers!!! He screams at the top of his lungs every-day I get him in trouble for the same things that I get him in trouble for every day!! I need help and advice he hits and bites and screams and punches and slaps his brothers and I and I have gotten so over whelmed I am home with them every single day and it has gotten so bad that I have been screaming and yelling at him for doing what he does I can't seem to get it to stop I have over whelmed my self I've hit the bottom and I need another mother to tell me what all I need to do to keep my cool and how to stop this I haven't been a mom for very long and I need someone to help me when I scream at him and push him away I feel like a shitty mother and parent because I get so frustrated at him that sometimes I just walk away and I spank him and I can't keep doing that that is a shitty mom when I have to do it everyday I am so much overwhelmed and frustrated that sometimes I just find my self crying to my self because I feel like a shitty mommy to my babies and feel like I'm not doing anything right. tonight my son got pissed off at his 1 year old little brother and bite the shit out of him All down his back and one on his stomach and I have no idea what to do he is angry all the time I don't know if it's because he knows he isn't the only baby anymore or if it's something else but I'm on my own by my self and I need some advice and his 1 year old twin brothers don't walk or crawl yet they were born early so what can make him so mad that he does this I love my boys oh so much and I need help so I can keep them from hurting each other and to keep my cool with them so if anybody has any advice and no judging I would love that
@believeinbuddha, thats true they see they can get u worked up then they feel they have the power
Try 1-2-3 magic just dont talk and when u get to three time out one minute per year of age 1 minute if one two if hes two so on so forth. It might take a few days to start working but be consistant and stay calm dont use emotion.
@laciemarie super nanny does time outs. One minute for every year of the child's age. They definitely do it to get a reaction. That's one thing she teaches.
I agree with @believeinbuddha super nanny is awesome. My son tried doing that, (terrible 2s hit my boy later) a lot of times that i nottice is they look for a reaction from you, he wants to get a rise out of you. Try doing the opposite. Of coarse he needs displin when he tries hurting you or his siblings, but if he screams or throws a fit just walk away act like u dont see him. It might get a little worse before it gets better cuz he wants that rise out of you. It worked for my kid. But every kid is differnt. Hope u find what works for u and your babied
@believeinbuddha yeah i tried it lol. It works with a lot
