Hitting

My son was doing this and we broke down and saw a behavioral therapist. She had tools I just didn’t have. It’s not perfect, but he’s doing so much better. Maybe try that? Your daughter’s pediatrician should have referrals.

My son loves throwing things. I tried to ignore it as long as possible but we have a 4 month old and he’s already gotten her a few times. Time outs make him cry and he just tells me come here the entire time he’s in the corner. I time them at 5 mins and sometimes shorter but it doesn’t change anything. When his sister is getting a bath he usually takes the towel I have laid out and throws it in the floor and tonight I gave her a bath he took the towel and put it in the floor And kept saying “no sissy’s” repeatedly (mocking me) that’s what I would say before only this time i ignored it and it’s like he was waiting for a reaction out of me but I didn’t give him one and he stopped eventually. This age is all about testing boundaries and I’m also at a loss because something’s I can’t ignore due to his little sister being in the same space as him. He also purposely went to throw his toy piano towards her tonight before his dad caught him and said something.

I try to take myself out of the situation. So I'll tell my daughter that that hurts me and I'm going to put her down or walk away for my safety, and I'll go sit somewhere where I can still see her but I'm not in her space. She usually comes over to me shortly after, I say again that it hurts me when she does that and I ask her for hugs. That works for us, hopefully it could help for you as well
