Does anyone else's LO hit themselves when they're mad or upset? My son has been realllly overly sensitive lately and the past 2 weeks, when he gets mad or upset or in trouble, he smacks himself in the head or will literally get on his hands and knees and hit his head on the floor and runs over crying. I don't know why this started but it's getting to the point where I'm getting worried that he's actually going to really hurt himself. If your advice is that he'll learn, please don't bother commenting 🙄
My son does this sometimes and it really bothers me 😭😭 Sorry that I dnt have advice, but you definitely aren't alone lol.
@mommyof1boyy no, you're fine. Saying he'll learn just doesn't help me is what I meant. I didn't know that this was a stage though 😩 I just feel bad because he literally will go out of his way to purposely wall into the kitchen where It's not carpet and hit his head on the tile floor.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Prayers needed please
My husband is on his way to his mothers house, and he has no idea when he gets there that he is going to find out his little brother killed himself thismorning.
How do you punish a 3 year old to stop hitting mama when he cant get his way ?

...His friends and getting high are more important to him. He got mad at me when I got upset for the things he was saying to me when I asked to come over :(
So my fifteen month old son decide to throw himself on the floor then hit his head on the floor on purpose when he’s throwing a fit if it’s not that he throws himself backwards like a contortionist
My son does it too, you’re not alone. I try to get him to take a few big deep breaths, move him to another space (like if we’re in the living room move to his bedroom) and once he’s calmed down a bit try to give him a word he can use for the feeling (ex: that sounded like you were angry or frustrated), so that he can learn how to say it rather than resort to hitting himself. The breathing and moving work well, naming emotions hasn’t helped yet but hopefully it will soon. I don’t know if that’ll help with your kiddo, but maybe it’s something to try. It’s scary when they do that, I’m sorry you’re going through it!
