I've got a DCB...almost 3.
He's a smart kid...knows his colors, shapes, alphabet, recognizes upper and lower case letters, etc. But when it comes to demeanor, he's worse than a rage baby!
This kid will scream high pitched shrieks and squeals every time he is in trouble.
This morning it was because he chucked a toy at another kid's head. I sat him in time out and he kept spitting all over! I told him to stop and I get the screams and wails.
My lower level is split up into 3 rooms....another play room/nap room, my husbands "man room" and our game room. The other rooms are blocked off. This child has found amusement in getting off his cot, going into the game room and playing with the pool table and the pool balls. I have put the balls up, I have told him no, his mom slapped his fingers when I told her what he was doing, my husband has used his stern "Stay Out" voice but nothing helps.
I catch him in the act at least 3-4 times a week! When I'm not down there, I have a camera right on him so I know exactly what he's doing everyday.
What can I do to get it through this kid's head to stay on his cot? He's the same gremlin that doesn't stay at the table after he's done eating, needs direction all day everyday and now DCM decided to "start" potty training him. This kid screamed and kicked me yesterday so I'm not even going to try "training" him until after I get back from vacation!
Anyone have any advice.
