I have a near two year old boy, he won't stop biting me (mummy) or my nephew. His temper is unreal.
I tell him off, sit him down take all toys from him and do discipline.
But it is really getting me down and it is so painful. I am beside myself. Thank you for your understanding. No hate please x

He's too little to really be punished for this sort of behaviour.

You can say a firm No and move him away. If you're holding him put him down.

Really praise him up when he plays nicely or is gentle. Talk lots about being gentle and kind. Do some role play with teddies etc. about gentle play and kind hands.

The main thing though is learn the signs that a bite is coming and either you move away or move him away.

He will grow out of it.

My nephew did that at 2. He is now 3 and stopped it

My DD used to hit at that age and have an awful temper! I just used say a firm no And get her to show me Gentle hands. If she tried again I would say firm no again and walk away and not give any attention. Then really play up the positive attention when she was kind or helpful etc. They do grow out of it. Just be calm and firm. Good luck!

Oh and be consistent! Do exactly the same every time so he knows it doesn’t get him any where.

Thank you all, I mean I am firm and do praise him when he is really behaved etc. I have cooling off spot for him he knows what he is done wrong straight away. Thank you all for you help and suggestions.
