I am sorry ,this is a trying time for you, it could be that you do not have enough rules that he needs to listen to, and you have to be consistant with him. It is not permissible for him to yell at you, so you use the time out method when he is throwing a tantrum, find a place , a cushion, a chair on the stairs, you take him there ,no words, no yelling, and sit him down tell him he has to stay there until he is sorry, then you walk away, he will get off, so you take him back ,over and over if you have to. Eventually he will realise he has to stay there he will say sorry ,give him a hug and alls well. sometimes if you are yelling he will yell, he is learning it from you, so quietness is a good thing .When its bed time no going to bed with you, take him into his room read some stories to settle him and leave the room, if he comes out quietly take him back ..Consistantly ....you take control, however remember children like to play it is important to have fun with him, board games, outside activities , get dad playing ball with him .its called FUN.  Good luck
