Head Banging 4 Year Old :-(

Hi All,

My 4 year old has always been one for punching his head in what we guess is frustration but just lately he is getting really bad at smashing his head against walls and punching his head when he gets upset, he is non verbal so makes it even more challenging . Has anyone ever been through this stage? can anyone recommend anything , hes constantly covered in marks all over his face and its upsetting us we feel so helpless , today he smashed his head on the wall that hard he cracked the plaster on the wall and left a big dent in the wall.

Many Thanks

Matt
