No that is not to much.. If he is kicking you in the face and not listening.. Atleast you love him enough to help him the right way♥️♥️

Hey @jenny955, isn’t he in early intervention or something similar? Am I getting you confused with someone else? If I am, I apologize. But maybe reach out to the program he’s in and see what they do for discipline. My son has been in therapy for over a year (speech and eating) and we also work on behavior stuff there too. The therapists have been invaluable in figuring out what works and what doesn’t for disciplining my son.

Time outs took a while to work for us. What worked better was sitting him down in front of us and having him count or sing a song or recite his letters. He also yells when he’s mad, and much of the time he’s just looking for a reaction. Not reacting or calmly reacting and saying “Owch, you’re hurting my ears” worked much better than constantly responding to the yelling. And one day we just said to him “I expect you to not scream when we stop playing and have to clean up” and it worked. Telling him how we expected him to behave really helped him in most situations.

Thank you for that. Hopefully it will get better soon and yes the mother is gunna have to prove alot to be able to see him Again.

My son is 4 and is still in this phase everyday. It's hell

Terrible twos, terrifying 3s🤷‍♀️ kids that age in the nicest way are kinda little ass holes. But also at the end of the day they need to know that mom and dad forgive and love them more then anything. Especially if his bio mom is that big of a pos to lose custody of him, that boy is going to count on you in many ways as a mother. You and dad need to get on the same page with parenting. That could definitely cause a lot of issues and confusion in such a young child. Keep calm mama, I know it’s hard. I’ve been their! Just remember your that boys everything, he doesn’t know why he’s doing the stuff he does at his age. It’ll get better eventually!

my 2 year old is going through the same phase , maybe it is because there’s another baby having moms attention , but when she is acting out , she has to sit in the ‘ no no ‘ chair for 2 minutes , if she gets up i add 30 seconds to it .. if she gets out of timeout and acts up again i add a minute to her timeout . when she is screaming and throwing herself around hitting herself , she goes in her room with her gate up until shes calm enough that she will listen to me . i give her a hour of tv time but if shes been in timeout more than 2 times a day , i take it . if shes been good i give her a movie at night before bed . i always have ‘ toddler tunes ‘ playing on the tv on pandora though . sometimes during ‘ learing time ‘ if shes not paying attention to the paper stuff i have , i turn it on youtube & i pause it to repeat / show words , colors & stuff .

If he's throwing the toys then yeah I think it's appropriate to take the toys away. And he gets 2 hours a day of tv

Way too much. The punishment should fit the crime. That’s excessive for a two year old.

No its not to much! Nip it in the butt now or u will have a out of control teen. I wish I started discipline this early w my almost 13 year old.

I also would say be careful how much screen time he has.

2 is very little. They need to be taught over. And over. And over. And over again what is ok and not ok. I guarantee you taking away tv for that long doesn’t make any sense to him.

EDIT: I mean to say I don’t think taking toys and tv away for the whole day will translate to a 2 yo as the consequence for what he did.

WAY TOO MUCH.
