Scratching

Stephanie

My son is 15.5 months and lately he’s been scratching. Whenever he’s in trouble or doesn’t get his way he’ll run up to us like a zombie with his arms out and scratch us. If we try and walk away he just chases us while he cries and continues to try and scratch. I’ve sat him down and told him that hurts, and he needs to use gentle hands but it doesn’t seem to help. Any advice? TIA
