[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When it came to pushing the baby sibling down and hurting her, and he didn’t respond to stern warnings, time-outs, and “let’s be gentle,” I told him he was going to get a spanking for it, and he would get a spanking every time he did after that. I took off his Pull-Up, put him over my lap, and spanked him five times. I had to do it one more time a week later, and not again.[/quote] This shows YOUR lack of control. Your child gets poor executive functioning skills from you, obviously. OP take your kid outside as much as you can and let him spend his energy there. Make sure he doesn't feel like the baby has all your attention. Carve out time for just the two of you and reassure him that he is loved uniquely, ie, not the same as the baby, but for who he is. Ignore and redirect bad behavior, don't punish it. Set up firm boundaries around violent or hurtful behavioral and have zero tolerance for that, like sitting on the baby.[/quote]
