Changing diet to eliminate sugar can't hurt at all!!

Is there a stressful event that took place that may have started his bad moods such as the death of a family member, a new house etc..In this case support and reassurance and lots of one on one time may help..

I wish you the ebst and hope that you get to the root of the problem!

A change in diet can do wonders. Limit cordial/juices, limit processed foods.

We had a boy start at my Pre-school this year who I have to say was quite out of control and his mother knew it but didn't know what to do or where to start. We found out he was drinking a lot of green cordial at home and suggested to Mum that this could be  part of the problem and she cut it out of his diet and the change is amazing. We were only just talking about him the other day and saying was a lovely boy he is now and his Mum is amazed at he change in him.

I would suggest changing his diet, it can't hurt, and it may just be that easy.

Good luck

it's alittle of everything!tirednes from kindy and the age they love to see what they can get away with.food is acontribute take him off all processed foods chips lollies etc.lots of fruit  and veg and watch sugar contents any more than 30% sugar in a product put it back on the shelf.and it's also underlying jealousy of his brother he's only a baby and still needs alot of care so the older boy is getting attention anyway he can even if it's negative.just persist with what your doing even after you've repremanded him give him 5 minutes to think about what's been said then go in and tell him you love him and give him a hug

Hi There. I think all children at some point do test your boundaries to see how far they can go. I have heard that if there is not enough zinc in a child's diet this can cause irritability. Anwyay it's a hard one .....Is he tired? or competing with the youngest? Perhaps he needs a bit of tough love? Good Luck I'm sure you will work it out.
