Best advice is to ignore it. Once he sees that its not getting a reaction from you he will stop.
Has this just started recently? Usually this behavior shows itself at an earlier age and I am wondering if it has just started that possibly there is something wrong, maybe at school, that he is demostrating like this.

It is going to take tough love to get him to comply. I have given a swat for every time they hit and throw a tantrum until they break. If you send him to his room and he hits swat his butt. If he throws a tantrum after that swat him agian continue until he givesw in and stops. It is not abuse the butt is meant for the rod of correction and they do not have to be exremely hard just enough to get their attention. Has your son been checked to make sure he does not have a medical problem. I have a daughter who is autistic and does the same thing but the swats work well with her she understands as she is not a severe autisitic. Best o f luck

you know look don't jump straight to what I am going to tell you, but they had a special on montel where the kids started out just hitting then throwing tantrums, but then as they got older they started puching and threating to kill them and things and they found out it was bi-polar or something, but anyway you can try to stop this by punishing him tell him when he hits that that is not the way to solve problems then give him something that he hates like okay if he hate to be by his self then you put him in a corner away from everything like you know a blank wall tell him when he learns what he has done he can come out let him no he don't hit to have his way and that he don't scream and then when he is ready to come back you ask him about it if he gives you what you want to hear show him that you love him then let him join you all. I am not a parent but I know a lot about parenting

I would like to start by spanking him for hitting you is a conflict... you can't say "don't hit me" and then hit him.... watch Nanny Jo... put him in a set place for time out and make sure he stays there. remember the rule - 1 minute for each year of age.... when times is up get down on his level, make sure he knows why he was put there, but that you love him, make him tell you he is sorry and then hug him.... then play a game together. Consistency is the key... Nanny Jo would agree!

try harsher punishment
but also consider the following:
this could be a cry for attention, try spending more time with him.
also reward the good behavour.
if you do those 2 things along with the harsher punishment (id spank if i was you) i think you will see a big improvement

tape his hands together behind his back.
when it's dinner time feed him like a baby.
let him know when he can keep his hands to himself he can have them back.
