I'm an educated woman, so why can't I get this right? I have a 17-month old as well. He's always knocking into him, or trying to wrestle with him. We go to a playarea and before I know it, he's trying to wrestle the kids there! We don't wrestle with him all the much anymore b/c it seems to fire him up and make the aggressive behavior worse.
Example-went to visit hubby at work. His coworker started kind of tossing him in the air and playing with him. My son started hitting and scratching him. He gets to this point of excitement, and then it's like he has no control over his behavior.
Another example-he was playing with these bags in my sister's pantry. He was all excited and screaming and laughing. It was time to go, I gave him some warnings that he had to pick up the bags and he totally ignored me. It was like I wasn't even there! I got some frustrated I ended up having to drag him out of the house with him throwing a huge fit. I feel awful, but I swatted him on his bottom.
