Thank you so much, Zfleebin. This is very good advice.
When we try to show him that it hurts, he laughs when we say ouch.

Yes, I've tried spanking, but he also thinks it's funny and laughs if I spank him.
Thanks, Apmle, for the help.

Maleficent, thanks for your concern and help. Yes, he's always been "rough" like this ever since he was a baby...but he's been overdoing it lately. I've noticed that it worsens whenever he comes back from his father(my ex-husband) and his father is not the person you can communicate with.

I dont know of what he eats with his father, but I try not to give him sweets, unless as a reward for potty training, which is a little hershey kisses, sometimes 2 a day...nothing major.
His diet is basically oatmeal, macaroni, rice, a little meats, egg, milk

Well, his pediatrician isn't much of as help...everthing is "alright" and normal in his eyes....I'm going to change his pediatrician, but the stupid healthcare place wont answer phone calls and the application process takes months and months just to put his health insurance under my name.

Thanks for all the wonderful help and support.
