Today, my 2-year-old son put his hand on my face, gave me a sweet kiss, and put his cheek against mine. Then he slapped me hard enough to leave a mark, laughed, and scrambled away. FML

Today, I asked my 2 year old son to clean up his toys. When I bent down to give him a good job kiss afterwards, he punched me in the nose. FML
Today, when I called my 2-year-old son over for a hug, he giggled and squealed as he ran over to me. He then stopped in front of me, punched me in the bollocks, and walked away quite happily whilst I was doubled over in pain. FML
Today, I sang a sweet lullaby to my two year-old son. In the process, he smacked me in the face and told me to please stop. My sister sings to him all the time and he loves it. FML
Today, two days after losing my temper with my smart mouthed 7 year-old son and slapping him across the face, I tried to apologize by buying him a treat and telling him if anyone found out, I would get in trouble. Today, I got a call from social services about the "bruise" on his face. FML
Today, while eating with my kids at McDonalds, my son put his hand up and wanted me to give him a "high five." I went to give him a five, but he moved his hand at the last second and I ended up slapping him in the face. Now everyone there thinks I'm a child-beater. FML
Today, one of the children at my daycare came up to me and bit me on the face. He laughed so hard at my scream, that he threw up in my lap. FML
Today, my 4 year old son groped my breasts and said, "This is what daddy told me to do." FML
Today, instead of kissing my child's boo-boo on her finger to make it feel better, I accidentally headbutted her. FML
Today, I was having dinner with my husband and two toddlers. My two year-old son was being incredibly cute and independently drinking water out of an open cup. I commented on how much I loved him. Two seconds later, he threw said cup with water at my head and started laughing. FML
Today, my two year-old cousin was having a temper tantrum. I decided to give him a flashlight because playing with it usually distracts him. It didn't. Instead, he hit me in the face with it as hard as possible, leaving a bruise. FML

Violence is everywhere, be smarter and try to talk to him.

At two years old he has learned that behavior from his parents and is undisciplined. This is sad - YDI for bad parenting. You need to nip this problem in the bud or you are going to have an abusive monster on your hands.

Two year olds do that. Just like they like to bite and kick. It is not because they saw it. I never raised a hand to my wife and every one of my 5 kids slapped my wife at least once. The previous contributor was right: that is why they are called the terrible twos. As a parent you need to be ready for it and as a responsible parent you need to correct the behavior in a constructive manner.

That's just kids man, normal behaviour. Maybe they do need some discipline, but a two year old isn't fully gonna understand that. He's still adjusting to nappies, domestic violence is well above him right now.

Although he is two, he should be taught that slapping someone is not nice. Otherwise, he'll keep doing it and it will only get worse.

I'm a mother of a 3 year old. He likes to headbutt me in the nose when I try to kiss him. I just explain that it hurts & he should stop because he wouldn't want mommy to headbutt him. Toddlers can be jerks. They just don't understand the concept of causing others pain.

All you people who think spanking is wrong are very misinformed! I do agree jumping straight to spanking is wrong. But an open hand spank straight on the butt is sometimes needed! A two year old first offense smack, gets hand grabbed firmly told no hitting. But if it keeps happening the discipline must change. If a child does not learn there is consequences to their actions they will keep doing it! Taking a toy away for hitting won't work. The punishment must fit the crime for them to understand what they did wrong. If you take a toy away they will think they did something wrong with the toy. Once again for a small child to learn smacking is wrong you must discipline the hand so the mind knows the hand did wrong! However time outs and explaining what the time out is for can work. If the smacking keeps happening the child might need a spank on the butt. The biggest thing to help a child learn right from wrong is consistency! Babies and kids are so much smarter then people give them credit for!!! OP i have been smacked by my both my kids once and only once. Be consistent and firm it will stop. It is hard to discipline your kids breaks my heart everytime i have to put them in time out, spank, take away toys, or ground them. It is part of being a parent just as love joy and pride are too!
