[quote=Anonymous]Catch his hands/feet/head in your hands to stop him from completing the hit/kick/headbutt. Hold him firmly and say "People are not for hitting. Do you want to make a different decision right now?" if he says yes, release him. Also, I found my DD was not good at articulating her feelings. Its a little iffy to do this because you could be going in the wrong direction, but I articulate FOR my DD. "Leaving is really hard, you get into a groove and get comfortable and then you have to stop to switch gears to do something else." Can you come up with something you teach him to do to self-soothe during transitions? [/quote]
