dd4 (21months) has started tantrumming in the last few weeks. but she also bites me during these. if i am not quick enough to get away she will sink her teeth into any part of me she can reach.

how can i stop this?

ouch! Ds bites but it's more during 'play' We have to put him in the hall every time he does it, as he thinks being told off is part of the game.

It's you because you are the closest person to her. Everytime she does it, say a strong 'NO Biting', pick her up and pout her in the hall. Or leave her on the floor and walk away.

Easier said then done I know but usually these biting phases are short lived (hopefully!). And at least she's not biting other children.
