MY family is breaking apart.


Question Posted Tuesday February 27 2007, 5:54 pm

My brother is 3 years and he's breaking my family apart. My family consists of only me, him and my mother. He's been acting really badly and it's been going on for the past 4-5 days. He's been pulling my hair, throwing down stuff, pulling my hair, banging into walls, breaking cups...and pulling my hair.

We try to enforce the naughty corner but he stays there for only 10-20 seconds. We've also been giving a little slap and pinch now and then..but he only laughs and pulls my hair more!

What can we do to get him to behave? I know this is wrong but I'm thinking of getttin a belt for him. I don't know...we're at the last resort right now and I'm terribly afraid that he'll grow to be a naughty bad child!

PLEASE HELP;
Distressed Sis!

I know this might not help much but my brother used to be the same exact way when he was around that age. It was horrible. But as children get older, they begin to realize that what they are doing is wrong. Give it time. You have to make him listen even if he doesn't want to. Give him a time-out. Take away his favorite toy(s) until he learns to behave. Just because he's acting like this at age 3 does not mean he's going to grow up to be a bad kid. He will eventually grow out of it. You have to be patient with him and not let him get away with all the bad things he is doing.
