We've just gone through a couple of months like this, my son so well behaved at nursery and with family but with me at home horrible screaming throwing, completely ignoring everything I say even doing the opposite. I felt like I was going mad, but it seems to have passed. Some one explained to me that he felt safe to push boundaries and express frustration with me. That's why he was doing it. Doesn't help in the moment.
@Jenny I honestly feel so horrible about it😭Then all I get from people is, oh she’s so well behaved for me. It explains a lot, they feel comfortable to act that way
I'm going through the exact same. The terrible 2s have defiantly hit. I spoke to the nursery to check how his behaviour their was and he's an angel with them. They explained it as I'm his safe space. He's got a lot of big emotions for a little body and I'm where he feels safe expressing it (doesn't make it easier but atleast explains it) I also have a 6 month old, as long as he's not hurting himself or breaking anything I let him have his tantrum then will talk through it as much as i can when he's calmed down. If I can I sit on the floor near him so I'm with him, and their for him as soon as he's finished. If the baby's with me I will always make sure im in between them so I can stop him if he's getting to aggressive or close.
If I can ill take him outside which does help, even just going in the garden. Change of scenery always helps. One thing that is important to remember is your no good to anyone if you're not looked after. If you need 5 minutes to have a breathe then take it. But them somewhere that they can't hurt themselves (I found hus crib is perfect) remove yourself and have a breathe. Then go back to it. Just remember you're doing amazing 😀 xx
My October boy has had a dramatic turn recently, he’s going through a throwing stage and is being very testing 🤣 just a phase 🤞🏼
She was throwing anything she could find and she pushed the hoover over. I didn’t realise she could get like this have I done something wrong
