Embarrassed to say the least 🫠
At pre school pick up today I have been informed my child is spitting at the other children (absolutely not a behaviour I will tolerate)I apologised a bunch of times but I’m so embarrassed he’s done it in the first place, the only game we play at home where there’s remotely any spitting is in the bath when he sips the water to spit it out. Should I stop playing this game ? He doesn’t have the greatest communication yet but does have a great understanding. He also spat for the first time on the walk to pre school yesterday where he was reminded firmly that we don’t spit it’s dirty and we only spit in the bath or when brushing teeth and he didn’t do it again. How do I approach this and stop him from doing it as it’s not something he does at home.

@Lauren I really hope so I will keep being persistent with the reminders if and when I see him do it. I know it’s very common toddler behaviour I just wasn’t ready for it as it’s come completely out the blue, they even said that it’s something they deal with all the time but still doesn’t change the feeling 😬
Yeah it’s like where do they get this stuff?! I felt similarly recently when my son kept hitting!
Oh yes the hitting 😬 he’s out of that for now hopefully it won’t start again whilst at preschool 😩😂

I would imagine he’s probably testing boundaries ! Don’t beat yourself up mama- def toddler behaviors. I know it’s embarrassing but I think just a conversation about it will help!
