  • Hi all. My advice would be similar to what Mel just said. If it is attention seeking then doing as Mel suggests is probably best. Try using picture cards if communication is difficult. Telling the child off isn't probably ideal but certainly make it known that the behaviour isn't acceptable.

    If one parent is being hit, then try and remove yourself and get the other parent to take over. This will act as a distraction to the child because if they are trying to communicate with Mum and it's not working then they are going to be getting pretty cross with her as well not getting the need met, so if Dad comes in with a positive attitude and uses picture cards to help find the need, this might help. Try looking on www.do2learn.com for resources to aid with communication.

    Hope this helps! :) xx
