My two year old has gotten to the point of refusing to listen to anything that i say and doing everything i tell him not to. I try being nice and jist talking to him, and i tried being stern. It feels like he is just getting worse and its pushing me to the point of tears cause its an all day everyday thing and hes teaching his little brother to act just like him..
I just need a break

I been trying.. I have been trying setting him in his room on his bed to calm down while he throws his fits or is being mean, its just getting him to stay there until hes done 😏 cause i dont spank.

Just make sure to praise him a lot when he's doing something good. Even if it's a little something he will start to realize that he's getting attention when doing something you want him to do and not just getting attention when being naughty.

I do though. Like when he helps, shares or picks up. I do it for both of them for positive reinforcement. But it seems as if he wants to make things hard on me

I'm sorry that's really hard. I use to be a preschool teacher so I know how hard and frustrating it can be to have little ones that want to act out all the time. I hope in time (very soon) your son will start to listen more. My daughter who never really acted up started to act up for a while right before I had her sister. It lasted a few weeks and then she went back to listening and behaving for me.

ehrenkrook i hope he straightens up again after i have this baby.. Cause hes usually a golden child, but these past few weeks its like hes trying to push me as far as he can. 😏 and its so frustrating cause his little brother is picking up on it and thinking its okay to be mean.

My daughter is in her terrible twos right now. I feel your pain. She is a good child but she is in a hitting faze right now and high pitched screams. As draining as it can be mentally and physically I just keep putting her in time out. I explain to her why she is going in time out then I put her in there and every time she gets up I don't say anything to her and I put her right back until she realizes I'm not playing around and sits there for a few minutes. Then i explain to her that she can't hit, it isn't nice and it hurts. She gives me a hug and a kiss and goes back to playing. Some days are harder then others. Just stay firm with him and don't back down. It'll be ok. ❤

@hbowen2018 I'm sorry girly. Maybe he senses another baby is on the way and he doesn't know how to handle it so he is acting out. I can't wait until my daughter gets out of the hitting phase. It is tiring at times. And I only have one, I can't imagine three. I hope he gets out of this acting out phase soon for you.

My doctor always said terrible twos are called terrible twos because they last 2 years and can start from 2-3 years old and boy was he right. My 3 almost 4 year old is still going through them & I will tell you that she drives me nuts basically she acts up until her feelings get hurt then she’ll listen for about 20 minutes then she’s back to acting out. She doesn’t get rewarded for her behavior either I’m also at a loss I basically bribe her to listen and that works kinda ☹️.

Oh no 😭😭 i am not prepared at all. I refuse to reward bad behavior, but i do praise good behavior. I hope this doesnt last 2 years, i will pull my hair out lol.
