How do I stop his aggression?
Hi,
I'm new to the whole forum thing and have so many things I need help with.
My 3+ year old is very aggressive, he has learning difficulties so is frustrated because he can't speak properly, but my partner doesn't help by playing wrestling with him. How can I control this? as he is now lashing out at others especially when he is being told off. He doesn't seem to understand authority or boundries.
Can anyone help?

My son can be a little aggressive - he bites me (and occassionaly other children) and hits. I have been reading Toddler Taming which seems to have a few good tips and I have just bought Playful Parenting as I feel I can parent my child a bit better (particarly discipline).
Have you tried timeout? I noticed you say your son has learning difficulties - could it be down to this? Could you ask your health visitor for some advice?
1 piece of advice is to stay calm when he does it. It is very hard I know, I sometimes have to leave the room so that I dont shout.
Sorry not got any useful advice...
Hope someone else can help!
