biteing

[karrie8]

My son is 21 months old and keeps biteing me and others daily. Had anyone else experianced this? And whats best way of dealing ive tried saying no lots of times

I'm not likely to be popular here, but I did this a lot when I was this age, my mum did everything she could think of, nothing worked. Until she bit me!

Obviously it wasn't hard, but it worked. She says it was the shock that did it. She felt awful and thought she was going to arrested or something, but I never did it again.

I in NO way am suggested hitting and so on, but just information for you.

Good luck.

it;s a phase which lots of children go through

teething can often drive them mad and make them bite things

at this age, remove him from the situation and keep repeating no in a low firm voice

it's good to try to identify triggers and move him before he chomps down

Give him a teether to bite on if you think it is teeth

Drives you crazy, but I promise it is a phase and will pass. Firm no and remove. Nothing really made any difference with my dd, she just stopped eventually.

Give him something else to bite (preferably the same thing each time) and tell him "We don't bite people. You can bite this." or some people prefer wording along the lines of "People are not for biting. Food is for biting, teethers are for biting."

Ok thankyou everyone I will persist glad it does sound just like a phase and hes not a vampire :-)
