Answer 1

Take away his toys or try one of those sticker charts. like if they are good for a day they get like a star sticker, & if they get 7 stars, they get like a little prize at the end of the week.  But if not , you are gonna have to take away things, but you CANT be too harsh.

Answer 2

Do you play one to one with him enough? The fact that he is looking at you and THEN doing the naughty thing makes it seem like a cry for attention?

Answer 3

My daughter is that way, granted she had only just turned 2, these wonderful little devils are "pushing there limits" so my mother says anyway..right now it is tough but you have to let him know that you are in control,  NOT him. If he sees that he can get  away with it he is going to keep doing the bad behavior(s) and make sure that you get everyone in the family on board with the same plan,example if your son hits someone... he gets a time out from whomever he hit, unless the other sibling is to young, take away a favorite toy when he is not doing well, put it on top of a refrigerator where he can see it but cannot have it, when he asks for it tell him when he is nice you will be happy to give it back, if he acts up in public, I know it is hard but get up and leave, take him home and make him have quiet time, once they realize that they are no longer getting attention for there bad behaviors they tend to quit, and make sure that you praise him bunches when he does act nice, and behaves when you go places, It does get better I have been doing these thing with my daughter for 3 weeks now and I have seen great improvement, I hope that some of this will work for you. good luck.

Answer 4

sweetie it's called terrible twos and sometimes it stretches to 3s and 4s. I have a 3 year old who does similar stuff when he colors on the wall make him clean it then it's not as fun if you half to fix what you broke.I take my son out and make him race his brother (he is 9) so I tell him to let him win. Or show him how to do jumping jacks or running in place. I also don't give my kids any sugar my older son has ADHD and he was really really bad at 2 and 3. The dr says also to stay away from things with red dye in them (something about the die makes them run ragged) Just know that they grow out of it. Try getting him to help with everyday stuff like I have my 3 year old help with the laundry by giving him the clothes to put in the dryer or helping my get a diaper for his sister or throwing something away for me little things to help him feel important. Sometimes children act out when they are not getting enough mommy time

Answer 5

When he gets out of time out YOU have to go and get him and put him in time out again and again and again and again.  As far as climbing on the sofa and drawing on the walls. Get off your butt and remove him from the sofa and don't allow him to have anything he can draw with.  HE is a two year old YOU are supposed to be the adult.
