This is a very dangerous problem and is best delt with by a professional. I have raised my own babies and I know they can get upset but by the time a horse is a yearling he's pretty good sized. If you don't know how to train, my advise is to get help. You want the best for your baby and your safety is foremost in my mind. To correct this kind of problem takes experience and knowledge. If the cost of a professional trainer is out of the question (I know how expensive they are) or you know of nobody that can help you such as knowlegable friend, it may be a good idea to consider selling him and get a horse that is older and broke.
One last thought, you didn't mention if he has been gelded yet. If he has not, the time has come. Handling a stallion should be limited to more experienced persons also. They can become dangerous and I'm wondering if this may not be part of the problem you are having with him. Stallions are notorious for striking with the front feet. Please be careful.
