do it back

Give her a good spanking each and tell her no every time she does so that she will equate her actions with a negative response. Be consistent and not too harsh. By spanking I mean a couple or few licks to the bottom not a beating or popping her little hands. You have to stop this behavior now or it will more than likely escalate as she gets older. Imagine your five or six year old slapping you and pulling your hair. That is totally unacceptable.

You have managed to raise a child that has ZERO respect for you. Sounds to me like you have been way to easy on her and not made her responsible for her actions and therefor feels it is OK to test her limits on you.
You must stop this at once. Do not let her get away with even one mean thing. Figure out what you are going to do for punishment, and do that ONE thing. I wouldn't recommend spanking, you already have a child that is used to hitting, I would use time outs. The best way I have found to make a "time out" work, is by using a play pin (pac 'n play) this way they cant get out, you just put them in for (in her case 2 minutes) each time with NO toys or anything in it and walk away. She will probably scream and to me that is good, that means it works as a punishment, after 2 minutes, you go to her and require a "sorry" from her before you take her out, and don't take her out if she is still screaming. She MUST apologize first.

Do it back. That's how my 2 1/2 year old learned. If she bit me I'd grab her and bite her where she bit me. Hard too cause if it doesn't hurt at least a little then she won't get the hint. Everyone loves my daughter because of how nice she is. But it wasn't easy..broke my heart to make her cry but it felt like it broke my leg everytime she bit me while doing the dish's!

Both my sons did the same thing when they were that age. I used to joke that sitting with them was the equivalent of going 10 rounds with the champ! Basically they don't have the concept that they can hurt you and they are just trying to play/get a reaction.
I handled it by immediately putting them down and telling them that I don't play with people who

Do you discipline her at all? I know some parents don't believe in spanking, if you are ok with that then I would recommend spanking her and giving her a time out. You also need to tell her it isn't nice to do that to people in a calm voice. If you don't believe in spanking her then skip that and just give her a time out and still explain the importance of not hitting. Good luck!

Sounds like one of you needs a time out.
Sit her in a corner. Explain to her that hitting, biting or pulling hair is not allowed. Give her 2 minutes. She'll say that she hates you. But that comes with the territory.

well first of all you should tell her how much it hurts you. (Maybe even pretend crying, it always works for me) Sit her down everytime she does it. Say, when you hit, or bit me, or etc. It really hurt me, please stop because how would you feel if I pulled your hair, or bit you, or even slapped you across the face. That would hurt right? (If she says yes) Then say , then why would you want to hurt me. Be nice, dont yell. Talk to her calmly and in a soft voice. It might get through to her that you are getting hurt. i hope I helped, Good Luck!!!

Every time she does one of these behaviors you don't approve of, gently take her hand and lead her to her room.
Say, "Uh oh, looks like someone needs a little bedroom time. Come back out when you are sweet".
The important part is to let her know that you don't want to be around her when she acts like that and you are sending her to her room to think about her actions, gain control of herself and you'll be glad to play with her again when she is nice. Hitting or biting back sends the message that it is okay to do.
You must gain control of the situation and you can do that by removing her from the situation (sending to room).

If this problem is not taken care of then you will have problems with this child from here on. Disipline is needed. my child used to pull my hair from the back then one day I pulled her hair hard but not too hard. enough for her to hurt with tears. She never did it again. My son used to bite till one day we bit back the same way and it also stopped. It always broke my heart when we had to do this but it stopped real quick. (Incidently, we tried gentler hair pulks and little bites to stop it but it did nothing)

Try not to lose your temper. Crouch down so you are face to face and explain to her "mommy doesn't like it when you pull her hair. It hurts, and I want you to stop. If you don't stop pulling my hair you will go to time out." then if she pulls it again put her in time out. Don't take no for an answer. Just don't lose your temper with her or you won't be able to explain that it's not cool.
