My 2 year old dd has started biting and pulling hair uncontrolably. She mainly bites me which I may add is very painful but has also biten and scratched other children but the hair pulling is the worst thing. She mainly picks on her sister 4 and a couple of close friends which apart from embarassing is getting out of control. This is happening every day starting first thing in the morning and continuing all day. Sometimes she is agravated but sometimes she does it for the sheer hell of it saying "naughty" and presenting her handfuls of hair!
We don't seem to be able to disipline her to any degree what we do seems to make no difference and she will just do it again immediately. Luckily she adores babies and doesn't seem to touch them.
We are getting desperate and don't know who to ask or how to react especially having never had to go through this with our other daughter.
Any ideas all you mums out there?
