My son is 3 years old and has behavioural problems - although these have not been recognised by a professional - yet.I raised my concerns with my health visitor and they have referred him to speech therapy as his language is slightly delayed. However, I am sure that this is not the cause of his problems.He is aggressive towards his younger brother and will hit, kick, punch - even hit him with toys and bang his head against furniture if he is able - it is impossible to leave them alone for a single minute. He has no sense of danger - running out into roads, climbing - he will run away and not stop no matter if you call him, shout, run after him - he will just run away laughing.He is very difficult to manage when he wants something - he throws the most amazing tantrums and will kick, hit, scream, spit, bite… anything. If he hurts himself he won’t be touched.He will sometimes wake up crying and stay like it for the whole morning. He is otherwise quite a happy child but will have long spells of crying. As a baby he cried about 20 hours a day. He is not potty trained and simple says he ‘can’t’ use a toilet. He wakes 4-6 times a night.I’m considering going back to my health visitor - does anyone else think this would be a good idea? Or has anyone experienced this? I’m really struggling - this morning he pushed me down the stairs in a temper..He is quite obsessive about food as well - demanding fizzy drinks, sweets and general other crap all the time. We don’t give in - he has what we all have. His behaviour is every day and doesn’t seem to be triggered by anything.
