In Charge of Sister's Baby and Having Problems W/ 22mo Yr Old?
my sister’s baby is so intellegent it scares me. he is almost 2 yrs old. he is trying to talk big words already and i have a good gift for getting exactly what he is saying. my sister works an awful lot and due to nasty day care issues preffers to sit him with me. but his behavior– he is defiant and he- when he doesn’t get his way -screams-fake cries- and throws things and slaps and kicks people.NOW MIND YOU I AM 31 , MEXICAN AND NOT A MOTHER BUT LEARNING AND TRYING TO BE ONE – SO I NEED ADVICE.- is this normal for him to be nice one minute/ happy and the other minute a mean spiteful child the next? his father- my sister said had a vicious abusive streak with his temper and fled the state due to criminal problems so he is not around but my sister sees some of the same abusive characteristics in the baby as she saw in his father. is this genetic? is giving him time outs ok? how do i deal?
no giving him back is notthe answer, i need advice and im trying to learn so when i have a baby of my own i know how to deal, people come on! i know your out there!
thank you so much parents in giving advice, i think he does need more structure and a bonifide daily routine. i thought it was just me. thanks.

I Have a 5 Yr Old Son. I Need to Know the HUGE Benefits of Praising a Child for Good Behavior.?
My boyfriend is in strong belief that it is more benificial to punish when bad happens rather than praise for the good. I cant seem to find the words to explain how great it is for the child to get praised for Good behavior. I dont want my son to grow up with this complex that everything he does is not good enough or is bad. Does anyone know of any great websites that list the development of a 5 yr old or just explaining how great praise is.
Thanks for the advice.
