She's started doing it at me or her big brother, at home, walking or in the car. I'm trying to find a balance between keeping it under control and calming her down .
She will do it after school or when we're heading somewhere she doesn't want to go. I can work around her some of the time (after a previous thread I am no longer taking her to supermarkets or busy shops) but there are times when we have to get things done.
The only thing I can think of is to give her chewing gum, which she loves and will hopefully not spit out. However she does tend to bite her tongue a lot so it might cause other problems.
I have reduced hitting and kicking by carrying her tightly and rubbing her back but the spitting is a tricky one.
