[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We try to follow Janet Landsbury and Positive Parenting ideas, which means that do not do time outs. They all seem to stress to DO NOT REACT to the aggressor, because that is negative attention. We are modeling, piling on positive attention, etc etc. Hes fed and rested. Good diet, and he’s home with me. He’s not bored. [/quote] The Janet Lansbury approach would be to block big brother or keep the little one away from him. When he tries to hit you calmly block his attempts and say “I won’t let you hit your little sibling” or if it continues “I think you’re telling me you are having big emotions and need me to keep you away from your sibling.” Your 3 y/o is telling you he cannot handle the big emotions around having a sibling.[/quote] You’re right. We try to counteract that with talking and modeling and blocking. But the aggression continues.[/quote]
