18-month-old biter :-(

Posted by Melanie J on December 01, 2002 at 16:11:26:

I have an 18-month-old daughter who is into biting :-( She is mean to her cousin that is 2 months younger then her. She bites him, me, her sister, my niece. It is out of control. She even bites herself hard enough to leave a red mark and then she laughs. I don't know what else to do. I don't believe that biting her back will work and I just won't do it!!!!! After all, she bites herself and laughs about it :-( She is a happy child and is so sweet but boy is she exercising her power with the bite :-( Thanks for any help!!!
