Gator Chomp

I'm horrified. My child is a biter! She bit another kid FOUR times at daycare yesterday and left marks!!



What do I do?! She's 19 months old...so I don't know her motivation behind why she's doing what she's doing. Do I bite her back? Spank? Time out? Stern talking to?

Funny part is...after she bit this child, he didn't even cry--SHE did. I guess you have to be tough to be a friend of M. She bit him on the forehead and left a mark! WHO DOES THAT!?

We roughhouse, M and I, but NOTHING like that. She's a tough kid--but I don't want her to be a bully!! 

I love my sitter. I don't want M to be kicked out of daycare. But at the same time, other parents shouldn't have to worry MY kid is going to chew on their kid.

I love my baby...I love that she loves to love others. I just wish she understood that "love" doesn't mean "bite."

(NOT MY KID--But funny!)



I don't want to have to outfit her for a muzzle, so I'm taking suggestions!!
