<p>My 4-year-old is the oldest of my three boys and he has a very bad attitude and temper. When he does not get his way, he starts fussing and arguing with me. He throws his toys and is very ungrateful and demanding. For example, when I cook something that he doesn’t want to eat, he yells and then goes to his room. It’s starting to rub off on my 2-year-old, and I need help on how to control his attitude. I have tried time-outs, taking his stuff away, etc., but nothing is working.</p>
