To answer the question regarding aggression in children younger than 3... yes it can happen, although the good news is, it might be much easier to correct. We had a toddler girl (age 11 months when she came to us). She would hit other kids on the head with toys, instead of playing with the toys! But it didn't take her long to learn how to PLAY with toys. It was because she was used to seeing complete chaos in her birthhome.... 6 older brothers left unsupervised most of the time. The conditions that come to light are just unbelieveable sometimes... no wonder some kids are so aggressive. I agree with above posters, you need to protect your little ones first!!! Good idea keeping them protected at night too! I hope they find a home for the boys very quickly, one without little kids or pets.
