Toddlers and infants - need help!!!!

Hi guys,

I am posting this for freind of mine and I KNOW you all will have some great advice!

She has a 2.5 yrs old and a 6 month old - the toddler is very aggressive towards the baby and hits and pushes him over. Even if the babe is in a playpen, he will find a way to hit him or throw a toy at him.

So - what to do about it? She can't leave them alone, but even when she is sitting right there the older one will push the baby over.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance...

Karyn

HI
This reminds me of a friend a year ago.
She finally called her doctor for suggestions after the toddler whacked the baby in the head with a toy. The doctor suggested that when it happens, to take away something that means a lot to him. They were doing that before, but he said to have it be away for longer. I think they took away his Thomas train for a couple days or so. I think things got better, but that was what they tried with him.
