My friend's two year old has been hitting my two year old son lately. He is a quiet, shy and sweet boy but recently, he's been on a rampage. The other day at the park, he proceeded to chase my son down and beat him up and pin him down for no good reason. He continually did this. He even hit him with a chocolate popsicle where I had to change my son's shirt. He started this two weeks ago. He has never been aggressive. We don't know where he gets this from. He don't watch tv, parents don't want violent tv, he is not in daycare....so we're baffled as to where all this is coming from. Any help?

he might have seen some other kid do it... children adapt such behaviors.. . try tellin him to hug your son and start clappin and praisin all his good acts and well with kids its like the more u tell them not to do somethin the more they do it ... so how about ignoring his bad behaviors... or if that doesnt work start lookin him in the eye and tellin him not to do whatever he just did...

he is learning he has power over your son. You need too watch the boy carefully and the second he is after yours grab him and loudly say in his face NO! If you do not get on top of this he is not going to stop. If he keeps it up I would be keeping my son away from him till the mother gets the boy under control. Your sons wellbeing comes first

Boys will be boys..on second thought, my girls have been in this situation before aswell. I would tell my friend's boy to get over there and sit on the chair for two minutes..if he moves before 2 minutes you make him sit longer..until the two minutes is up. If your friend cannot handle him then you will ahve to. Kids often listen to other adults..other than their own parents. Give it a go!!
Good on you for doing your nursing, I too am a nurse :)

I don't know what your friend should do, but if it were my son getting beat on by some uncontrollable kid, I wouldn't let them play together anymore!!
If you find that embarrassing to explain to your friend, then I guess the price to pay for avoiding an uncomfortable conversation is to let your son keep getting abused by this other kid.

When your friend needs someone to watch her child volunteer to do it. Then when he's at your home pin him down and tell your son to get some free shots. It'll teach that kid that he can't hit your son anymore and he's too young to tell his mom on you. It's a win-win situation.

maybe hes jelous wants attention tell him something to scare him or just tell your son to kick his fanny that way hell be able to defend himself not just stand there get beatup, i have a 3 yr old he looks like a mini football player other kids want to play rough or just push him around because they think hes older i tell him to stop crying and go back hit those little suckers that hit him he comes back with a big o smile it sure helped try different things good luck

Some one has snuck and taught him to fight,or maybe someone let him watch tv ,the child could have saw someone playing a video game.

You dont know what goes on behind closed doors - maybe this is happening at home - and you are unaware........we can never know if a person is being beaten unless they tell us.
Children of that age tend to mirror image - if they see something happening, to them it is the norm......i would have a one on one with your freind and find out what is going on that you dont know about.

my friends son did this to mine. i just told her what was happening and to watch her son. she would get onto him when he was here but when she was gone and i was babysitting it was up to me. finally my son got mad enough that he went off on him one day and my friends son hasn't done it since. maybe your son just needs to take care of it himself if no one else will do anything.
