Oooohh I wish someone had advise for a 15mth old.

DD hits and knows its not good. I already pull her up for it. I figure we say no so often that with this in particular I say we don't hit we hug instead. I'm hoping I can nip it in the bud now so that it doesn't get bad later. I normally pull her hands away as well and get down to her level or pick her up and put her on my lap.

Sometimes its because she gets so over excited and I know she can't express herself properly but other times its because she is actually angry]]> Thu, 16 Sep 2010 22:31:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35096&PID=1154756&title=hitting#1154756 <![CDATA[hitting : It drives me mad aswell.

It drives me mad aswell.

Arianne hits me, no one else, I must be a push over. I always say its naughty to hit. Doesn't seem to work.]]> Tue, 17 Aug 2010 14:40:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35096&PID=1128542&title=hitting#1128542 <![CDATA[hitting : ditto the above.

ditto the above. I make sure to say why too. eg We don't hit that hurts me, or makes me sad.

it helped my boy understand when he was hit quite hard at a playgroup. i talked about how that made him feel sad and scared. ]]> Mon, 16 Aug 2010 15:29:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35096&PID=1127565&title=hitting#1127565 <![CDATA[hitting : My boy is 2 as well.

My boy is 2 as well. I do the same as shelt and grab DS' hands and tell him "No, we dont hit, thats not nice" in a very firm voice and look him right in the eyes and that always makes him realize he has been naughty. He sometimes hits me, but not often, but he hits his sister quite a bit, on the head usually when she is annoying him.
I also tel him to say sorry, even though he cant actually say sorry yet, his speech is getting better though.

Terrible twos!

I just grab both her hands and make sure she is looking at me then say "we don't hit in our house, hitting is not acceptable" and then pick her and and put her in time out. I then tell her she can come out when she is ready to say sorry. Normally she says sorry right away when I go back after a minute or so and gives whoever she hit a cuddle.

I think the key is to give a consistant message - that isn't something she should be doing - and keep giving a consequence.]]> Thu, 05 Aug 2010 20:56:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35096&PID=1119515&title=hitting#1119515 <![CDATA[hitting : In our house hitting is absolutely...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35096&PID=1119050&title=hitting#1119050 Author: first

In our house hitting is absolutely unexceptable. If my son hits I put on my absolutely horrified voice and say "I can't believe you just hit, That is not exceptable." I then pick him up and dump him in time out. I say when you are ready to say sorry you can come out. Usually he's out in a few minutes appologising and giving kisses to the person he hit.
He does sometimes hit when he gets over excited and I see that as a different matter. I just grab his arm and say remember we don't hit its not nice, lets find something nice to do with your hands - let clap instead. Sometimes they just need the energy redirected. ]]> Thu, 05 Aug 2010 14:04:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35096&PID=1119050&title=hitting#1119050 <![CDATA[hitting : This has probably been covered...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35096&PID=1118983&title=hitting#1118983 Author: noisybaby

This has probably been covered before but I would like some advice on how to stop my DD whos 2yrs old to stop hitting me and her 3month old brother.

She hits me in the face to the point I have had to stop wearing my glasses and I have tried ignoring the behaviour but she keeps doing it. Do I leave her to keep doing it till she stops as I don't respond or what do i do.? I have told her its not nice and it hurts but she just laughs and does it again. By the way she isn't speaking yet but does understand everything

When she hits her brother I just ignore her and make a big fuss over him. It kind of works.

What do i do shes driving me insane
