[quote=Anonymous]Give him other outlets? A stuffed animal (sturdy) to beat up and smash? A squishy doll to carry around and squeeze when angry? You could have these items in several rooms so easily accessible. You could reward him for using these items - a few dollars added to his allowance or whatever you use for rewards? Punish for throwing or wrecking non approved items? A few dollars subtracted from allowance? My kids used to pelt each other in the car and I bought a giant stuffed bear (life sized - $30 from Costco) and strapped it in the car seat between them. Worked wonders. Eventually, a few years later, the bear embarrassed them and they were able to control themselves so I took it out. [/quote]
