Very Violent 4 year old

[mom070911]

Hi I'm having issues with my 4 year son he is so violent, When he was 3 we caught him piling blankets on our 1 year old and the sitting on them, we corrected him and haven't seen anything concerning like that till recently, He has busted our youngest in the eye causing him to have a black eye then the next day our youngest was standing by a table playing with cars and he came in and pushed him into it. I know its not because he was replaced as the baby of the family because he is equally violent to our oldest child.
Can anyone give me any advice or help?

   I am not sure if he is violent or just clumsy?  But at any rate, get the book (an others like it) "hands are not for hitting" found here.  http://www.amazon.com/Hands-Hitting-Ages-Best-Behavior/dp/1575420775
   and make a special time to read it to him.  Then read it again, practice it during the day, and read it again.  You will also find other books listed below on that site that may also prove helpful.  And as the others have suggested, just giving him that special one-on-one time will also be helpful.

I think it might be for attention, if he is constantly violent and lashing out to others the attention is on him, but not in a good way as he is constantly getting told off( that's if he gets told off at all) try spending time with him daily just mum and him time or dad and him time, go to the park and play on the swings, or just simply read a book with him on the sofa. This will make him seam like he gets good attention too and will hopefully take him away from hitting other to get some sort off reaction off of his parents. Remember to make your other feel attention  too :-). Good luck I hope this was help full x

Has he seen any violent movies? Or walked in while you or someone else was watching a violent movie? If he's in daycare/preschool maybe he's being bullied and relaying it onto his siblings. Does he have enough positive attention from you and dad? Sorry for all the questions.
