So on NYE a couple of kids were complaining that my DS was trying to scratch them. AFter they said it a few times I finally took DS upstairs and put a movie on for him and told him its not nice. Truth be told, I didn't really do much about it because I wasn't sure what the circumstances were and he'd never done that before.
Yesterday I pick him up from preschool and his teacher tells me he's playing blocks nicely with another boy then the other boy got a bad scratch down his face (she didn't see what happened).
After school we go to the gym and he's in the daycare there and when I go to get him I find out he literally just scratched another little boy and this scratch was BAD...from the corner of his eye to his lips and it had a little blood in one area. Again the daycare supervisor didn't see how/why it happened.
Also yesterday i caught him trying to scratch his older sister 2x and it was malicious - fighting over a toy - not by accident or in a "wrestling" sort of way.
So, PLEASE give me some tips on how to deal with this. I took his 2 favorite toys away yesterday because he hurt 2 different boys and I told his sister no more wrestling (which they love to do but sometimes takes a turn for the worse). We also made up a song together..."No touching, No scratching. Just lots and lots of laughing and caring and sharing. That's how we make new friends."
I'm honestly sick about this....keep thinking of the other little boys face.
My DS is 3 yrs & 4 mo old.
THanks.
