hitting, kicking, problems

[Guest guest]

We have completed seven rounds dmsa/ala as per Andy on our almost four

year old. We have seen great improvments in many areas. The only

problematic thing that has shown up is that he now resorts to hitting,

kicking and verbal assault when he gets angry. He has gotten very

defiant. He does not seem to learn from discipline, such as time out

or loss of privileges. Nor does he get that it hurts people.

The lack of apathy is not new, but the striking out is. He got so mad

about having to lay down and take an afternoon rest that he smacked me

in the eye and gave me a shiner. He attacks me and his 11 year old

sister. He has even taken a swing or two at dad, which is something he

never would have done before.

We are on all required supplements and doses, probiotics, GSE for

yeast, though I am not convinced the yeast is gone.

Any ideas? He did go through the normal hitting stage as a toddler

and had learned not to hit.
