[quote=Anonymous]What worked with my son (around that age) is when he hit me, taking his hand in yours (gently but firmly) and saying "it is not OK to hit. It is not OK for you to hit me or me to hit you." I was told to try this at some parenting class. I admit I did not think it would work, but it worked like a charm. And do not beat yourself up. You lost it. You are human. You have three kids. I have one kid and I have had some not so good mommy moments. I typically do apologize so my son knows I am not condoning my behavior. But I think it OK for kids to see that even parents have breaking points.[/quote]
