Posted: 10-09-07 13:59pm

Hi..
My names ali i have a 15 month old son,...&&& he has a horrrrible anger problem!!! I dont know what to do about it,...when something sets him off,...he will smash his head againts the nearest walll repeatedly...an of course i stop him when he does this,..but its gettin to the point hes doin it so much hes leaving bruises all over his head. He also will bite himself until the point where his skin will tear if he wont get his way. Is this normal?? Well i dont think it is cuz its horrible but i mean has anyone else gone thru this wit their kids???? An what should i do??? Nothing seems to work he just keeps gettin worst & worst....

*posting all in caps is considered yelling on forums*

You should look into some parenting books at your local library and possibly take your son to see his pediatrician to rule out anything that may be going on with him medically.

To answer your question, no, it isn't normal behavior. But that does not mean it is wrong. Children start their 'terrible' 2's after their first birthday. He is pushing you to see how far you will go.

I suggest comforting him when he starts to behave this way. Always keep the same limits and keep the same schedule. Children need things to remain constant. Same bedtimes. Same naptimes. Same feeding schedule. Same rules. Etc.

There should be an extensive parenting section at your local library.

Good luck!!

You don't have to appoligize to anyone.
You're a worried, busy mommy and don't have time to worry about "oups! writing in caps is bad"... Who ever the <girlfriend> is, she thinks you're not as "P. Diddy as her
anyway and who is busy getting her nails done & on the internet most of the time while you & I are actually naive enough to think that coming on here would give us any real peace of mind... You do the best you can, because that's all you can do. Your son IS NORMAL, he is behaving like I'm sure many do (even though their mommies say they are perfect.) I know you are not the first to have this happen but it seems that way to you. Talk to your childs Dr. instead next time, & I suggest you look up; What to expect The Toddler years. Even though my son is only 6 months old, my girlfriend got me this book for X-mas, she said it became her bible with her daughter( who is now nearly four).
The best to you & your little man.
