SUBJECT: yelling at me, hitting me, and very defiant
HI,

My three and a half year old has turned into a monster. He's funny and incredibly inteligent..but he has become a little meanie!

When he doen't get what he wants he continues to yel "please" even hits me when he doesn't get his way. He cried VERY loud as well. He is imposible. I do spank when it is appropriate, but I don't like to. Most of the time he can be so good, and obediant, but when he gets like this I just want to beat my head against the wall. I walk away mostly, or send him to his bed. Sometimes he will go to his bed when his feelings are hurt by a little swat on the toush, or when he does finally give up. I just hate when we go places and he does this. He is just impossible. He is also the escape artist at day care. He only goes for two hours about four times a week, but he is so naughty there too. He is also obscessed with the potty, and washing his hands.Any suggestions??
He is my youngest and I know part of this is my fault, but I need to correct this before kindergarten...My oldest was NEVER like this. Now my oldest gets mad and hits him when he gets like this...and that bothers me too. My oldest is seven.

hugs
Amanda
