If so, how do you handle it?
DS is 6.5 and has adhd (combo type). Lately, my 4 yr old, who is trying to assert herself, is mimicking DS's behaviors pretty much across the board. I honestly do not know how to approach this. Anyone BTDT? What did you do?
Also, it is causing DS to be more aggressive towards DD. We have hitting, kicking, biting, pinching and hair pulling going on. I am no longer able to take them out anywhere (they do this in public and often knock random people over). they do this in the car and I have to pull over (often).
DS does not act out in any way at school. This is only at home where he literally turns into a crazed maniac towards his sister and generally acts hyper.
