I have a question regarding my two year old nephew who now lives with me. For the last week I have been at my wits end with his behavior. We've never faced these type of behaviors before from our kids and others too. Frustration is taking over here in my house hold and it's all coming from the smallest person here.

The issue is he's mean....purely mean as crap. He hits, bites, and mostly throws things when he doesn't get what he wants. Today he through a toy in my daughters face and hit her nose, she bled everywhere. He's especially mean to her because my four year old avoids him and he knows better to not do that to the adults. Sissy takes most of his wrath. All she wants is to play with him because he's more equal in interest that she is in, and she's constantly hit and hurt by him.

My job as the mother is to protect my children....this situation is hard because my child is being harmed....but by another child, the one I have now taken as my own.

What do I do?? Is it normal that I feel anger towards a two year old??

I understand that he has been dealt a %#@&#! hand in life so far, for so few years. I sympathize more for him then any other and I do love him as much as my own. BUT, I'm totally frustrated with him.

It's beyond the aggressiveness too, he never listens and he throws fits over EVERYTHING...literally. He hurt my ferret too. I won't even let her out of the cage while he is awake, I fear he'll accidentally kill her.

Does anybody know anything I could do? Has anybody ever experienced this??
