You know the one, he's approximately 3 feet tall, sandy blonde hair and blue eyes.
Often referred to as Mav.

I don't know how much more this I can take, I am pretty much at my wits end with him. I feel like I have not done anything except for yell and and timeout and more in over a week. I don't know why, but all of a sudden he's turned into an absolute psycho child. Dare I even say it.. an asshole. Yup I said it, it is the truth. He is being so aggressively bad that I can barely stand being in the same room with him at this point. I find myself making excuses to leave him with hubby any chance that I get so that I can get away. I need to for my own sanity.
And then I feel guilty for feeling like this with my child.

I'm pretty sure he is purposely trying to get me angry at this point. Why I'm not too sure, jealous maybe of the time and attention Ty needs?
I tried taking him out just me and him to see if that would help. We went to the movies we had a lot of fun, but as soon as the movie was over it was time to go home he turn back into his psychotic self epic tantrum battles hitting screaming you name it it's happening.

Time outs don't work. Time ins don't work. Tossing toys into the "garbage" doesn't work (punishment for throwing toys or causing harm with the toy). Yelling doesn't work. Talking in a serious tone doesn't work. Talking in a polite "please stop that etc" tone doesn't work. Sending him to his room doesn't work. Nothing works.
It's hard to give positive reinforcement when there is nothing positive going on.
So I guess starting tomorrow I'm just going to stop yelling. I'm not sure what I'm going to do but clearly he's trying to get a rise out of me.
Terrible two's my ass... this had better not be what three's are going to be like.
