writes: I have a son who will be turning 4 at the beginning of September. He is a sweet little boy and loves giving hugs and being silly; however he is very agressive the past few months. He primarily likes playing alone, occassionally he enjoys playing with the other children. When he does play with others he is very agressive. Hitting, spitting, scratching often times. Lately he is telling his daycare teachers to shut up and they are sassy. I'm really worried he will be like this for the rest of his life. His 'dad' who isn't involved in his life is a very agressive, abusive person. I have been with my boyfriend for almost 2 years now and he is a great father figure and role model for him. He has a 5 year old daughter and my son plays well with her; except on a few occassions. What should I do?! Reply to this Question

I wouldn't say he hits or scratches to get what he wants; more so because he is frustrated and doesn't have the maturity level to express when he gets upset or angry. He is behind in this speech, but is getting so much better with it. I don't thinka child physocolgist would be any help at this point; he may be too young to sit and understand what they are talking about.

 It seems that something is the matter, but certainly it's not his biological father's example that he is following. Look elsewhere. He seems to be a nice little boy, so his anger must be due to something.

 I would suggest an appointment with your doctor as a start, there are many medical conditions that display similar symptoms ie autism, attention deficit disorder.
Not saying that he does have either of these though as im not a doctor, I went through the same with my boy he too has an excellent male role model, he was watched and tested for many years and it turned out he wad just a energetic boy and he has grown up now to be a lovely lad.
Take care and good luck xx
