Could really use some more details to answer this. Starting with how old the child is--2 plus is covering a lot of territory.
You need to have some routine, rules , disciplline and follow up bad behavior with consequences. I personally think spanking is the best consequence--so long as it is consistent. with a child of this age the only way it is going to work is a couple of stinging but light slaps on their bare fanny.
If you post some more details perhaps I could give you a little better answer. But I do think spanking is too often left out of the recipe these days--and when it is done it is not done right--so everyone thinks it dosen't work--the truth is it does.

He's going through a phase that is known as the terrible twos. First of all when you discipline make it consistent. Don't try one thing one day, then change the next day then change again, this doesn't work. I suggest (and it has worked for everyone I know of as well as myself) purchasing a child gate and putting it in the child's bedroom doorway. Also if you don't have any get a pair of headphones. When the child acts up (has a tantrum) put him in his room with the gate up walk away, go put on headphones and go back to whatever it was you were doing. The main reason they act up is for attention, don't give the attention he will stop acting up.

my son is the same way and he will be four next week,although he still has his moments I think he is doing much better,alot a people might not agree to my way of disaplining but if you have put up with it enough it's the only way and at least for me it worked.I spanked him and stuck him the corner and it only seemed to get worse,I think when I had showed him my angry side he thought that it was alright and he could show his so heres what I did to fix the problem..ask yourself what is the most important thing in a childs life..their toys, their friends..
was toys for my son because really thats all he has right now without any brothers or sisters.So I went in his room one day after I had had enough and took away every last toy,video game, stuffed animle ect. and put all his videos up for one week. after that I told him he could get them back one by one and two by two after the second week and so on until I seen an attitude change.People will say that you can't get them to listen or do right at that age but their wrong my son listens just fine and when he does start acting up or disrespecting his toys,I just take them away again untill he gets the point,works every time,at least for my lil boy,try and and see if it works,youd be amazed!good luck hun and don't loose ure cool.there only lil once!

It's not that he is naughty he is just curious and testing you 2 yr olds are egotistical and like to have the power. Be consistent and follow through with discipline. Also give choices. For example, If you want your child to drink milk for dinner and he wants soda tell him "ok you can have milk or water" He will think he is in control and chose milk. Both are healthy choices but he got to be the one to decide. If he wants to watch T.V and you want him to go to bed you might say "All of the lights are turning off so you can sit in the dark or mommy can read you a story in bed" If he refuses to make a choice tell him "I am going to count to 5 and when i say 5 and you have not made a choice i am going to choose for you, you might not like my choice" (follow through with you making the choice). Again he wants the power so he will hurry and choose before you. Ignore all tantrums, they tend to loose steam with no audience. Trust me they out grow this stage before you know and you will be sitting with him all grown up and missing every bit of this ornery behavior. Hang in there and just keep telling him that you are the boss because you are the biggest.

My 2 yr old is horribly naughty, the only thing is consistency, a firm no and time outs are the best way to go. Kids dont respond from smacking it only causes them to learn to hit. Just be consistent, no,no,no,no. My son has started to listen a little more, he doesnt like to sit.

my son was a very naught boy. when he was naught he lost he much loved toy or i put him on he naught chair and after he been there for a while or lost that toy for a few hours i told him again that he made me sad when he behaves like that, but i also give him a lot of praise when he has do the right thing so he know that what i think he should always behave like.
but it take a lot of time and frustration but i got there at the end.
my son is three now and i have no worries to take him shopping or out for tea

Try the 'naughty step', tell them off down at their level, take toys away but make sure that he knows what its for. I think they just try to see what boundries their are, also at 2+ they aren't baby babies but not toddlers so it's another phase for all of you. Patience, time out (for you!!), and you will figure out what works for him best (no sweeties, taking toys away, not going to the park etc). Good luck. Try talking to him, is there anything going on that's bothering him....it's a difficult one.

each child is diffferent as far as discipline goes. certain things work and certain ones dont. if the child is 2 or 3 then its prob just a phase of testing boundaries. time outs are always good and remember to explain what the child did wrong at their eye level and to where they can understand...good luck.....patience is the key with them at this age.

Yes I have 2 living and 1 angel and once they reached 2 I believed in positive parenting - no smacking just never ending repeating myself and putting them in the time out corner, As they get older they will soon understand what you like and what you dont like and what is wrong and what is right. You can also speak your concerns to your local child development nurse and if the child goes to Daycare express it to them ....
