So sorry you are going through that.  Mine is at the hitting stage too.  He'll hit me even though he knows it is wrong.  I'll warn him with a time out and if he hits me again I put him on time out.  Afterwards he hugs me to say sorry and then he's fine.  He might hit me again later on in the day, so we just do the same routine.  He's also at that stage where if he doesn't get his way, he'll throw a fit.  At home I just leave him and let him throw his fit, he eventually calms down.  If I'm somewhere else, I try to ignore the behavior and take him out of the situation that he's being bothered by.  That's all I got, sorry I'm not full of suggestions!  But just wanted to let you know I'm in the same boat with having touble with behavior.

My son is in the same stage.  It's driving me crazy!  We have been doing the time out thing, too.  Hopefully this phase is out grown soon for all of us.  =)  Hang in there!
