    Yes, what Lou said and your daughter is having to share you with a peer which is different from a sibling. That is probably the reason for the pushing. You have two little ones experiencing new stages in their lives at this stage in their development. I would respond to your daughters pushing with a definite no, but also give her hugs to let her know her position with you is secure. Then I would include dcg and daughter together with you in an activity so the girls can get used to each other and watch how you interact with both of them. Hope this makes sense, I just woke up.LOL

    Removal of privileges, my mean face and the stern voice that I use with the other dck when he is misbehaving is what has worked the best for me. When he was 18mos he bit a couple of times a dcg and was trying to hit others. He also had positive reinforcement when he was controlling himself. I also acknowledged his feelings, but told him that what he was doing wasn't acceptable (and that there was always a consequence for his misbehavior).

    He is now 2 and a totally different boy. He is gentle with the 3 new infants that started about 3 weeks ago. He even gives them toys when I ask him to share with the new ones because they are sad and sometimes he even caresses a boy's hair that usually asks for his mommy in the afternoon.. I think the key was being consistent every time and not giving in. Of course he has more hugs and kisses during the day than the others and my husband and I spend quality time with him during afternoons and weekends. He still has to follow all the rules that the others during daycare hours even if the rules change after daycare hours (like not going out the designated play area in the park during daycare hours and be able to do it after daycare hours)
