We got him evaluated at 2 for behavior issues they said he was in the monitor range but didn’t require services. He still hits people all the time. At his new daycare 2 kids came up to me and told me that Tyler hit them…I’m mortified. I don’t know what to do. He’s a really sweet kid sometimes and other times he’s a lot. He was having like 20 minutes tantrums but that has improved to 5 minutes or less. Has anyone else had a kid that was a lot, did they grow out of it?

They told me to monitor at two. At three we are referred to behavioral health. She’s made leaps and bounds with her behavior from age 2-4, but hasn’t aged out of some of the reactive behaviors, guessing age appropriate impulse control is a factor

My son walked up to a random kid at the aquarium and slapped him several times across the face. The kid wasn’t phased and the grown ups he was with didn’t say anything either.
It was the first time my son ever did anything like that before and idk why he did it

Sounds like he needs stricter consequences for his actions. Hes getting away with it. And he knows it. Hes not afraid of being bad.

Depends, if they have no remorse it could be a sign of a behavioural issue. My sons 3 and he still hits or bites sometimes out of frustration but always feels bad after and apologises (normally to his sister or me). Your mum gut will have the answers and if you feel he needs help, push for it!
