H.R.
I have a 2 yr old boy and he does the actig out thing sometimes and what I do is just play with him and give him all of my attention for awhile, 30 min. if possible or so. It seems that he starts acting out when he hasn't had enough from my husband or myself. We also tell him we love him and hold him. I think they act out like this because they are testing us and just need attention. It's perfetly normal. I know it's hard. I have 4 boys and been through everything. So if you would like to chat write back. My email is ____@____.com in there it gets easier and then harder again. But with support from others it really seems to help. So when ever you need some support or someone to chat just email me. I know how hard it can be. Take care.
