[QUOTE="joneshockey, post: 369026"] I don't even know where to begin... That has got to have been the worst night with B2, since going on medications 1 1/2 weeks ago. This unfortunately was not a good night for FF1 to have to work. B2 decided to just start kicking, spitting and biting at B1 for absolutely no reason. When I went to put him in time out be started to kick and scratch (which he drew blood)at me - Little did I know that this would be the start of a 2 hour fit of rage. At his psychiatric appointment. today we decided that we needed to make adjustments to B2's sleep routine, since he still won't go to bed with-o being rocked to sleep... We were to rock 10 minutes and then put him into bed - He was kicking, hitting, scratching and screaming at the top of his lungs while I rocked him, since I had told him prior to starting what was going to happen. After about 5 minutes I told him he needed to stop or I wasn't gong to rock him anymore... He continued anway - After hauling him up to bed kicking and screaming he proceeded to throw ALL his blankets, pillows and stuffed animals onto the floor - When I told him I wasn't going to give them back he began spitting and kicking the walls and side of the bed (which I ignored)all while screaming and crying.
