Answer #1

bite back(not too hard) tell her its not nice to bite and it hurts trust me she wont do it again

Answer #2

It may come to the point that you have to let him bite her back. That’s how it has been instantly resolved for EVERY SINGLE instance of biting in my circle of friends and my family. They all tried telling their child no, time outs, removing toys, bribing, spanking even… the only thing that worked was when the older child either got fed up and bit back out of anger, or the older child realized that mom and dad weren’t going to help the problem and they bit back as sort of a sibling punishment.

Answer #3

I know this might sound mean, but when my 14 yr old was 3 he bit me, I told him no- no, that isnt nice…he bit me again. I told him again no-no, no biting. he bit me again…so I bit him back. {not very haed keep in mind} but he never bit ANYONE again. I know it sounds wrong, but it worked.
