Lately, my 15 month old son has become really physically aggresive. His older brother went through this to an extent, but never this bad. He's scratched me so bad that I have three big gouges in my cheek. He took a bowl and through it right at my chin yesterday. He'll come up behind me and bite me on the ankle, and pinches and pulls at me while nursing. He gets lots and lots of attention on a daily basis. I don't know what could be triggering this outburst, but I can't handle getting hurt anymore! How do you deal with aggresion like this? I want to be gentle, and model gentle behaviour for him, but so far that alone isn't working. HELP!

This book feels good in your hands. The paper is heavyweight, and the illustrations flow perfectly.
