Punishment such as time out has no effect . This child hurts her mother her baby brother, pets she does it on purpose and she is punished for it consistantly but it hasn't stopped the behaviour and time out has been used for a year and it hasn't worked.

A good old fashion spanking. And no I am not talking about BEATING your kid.

I think he is being a rebellion.
She feels like all the attention is going towards her little baby brother and she is of no use. no one likes her thats why the only way she can get some attention is to be the bad girl so that everyone is talking to her and paying attention to what she does.
The best way around this is to give her lots of attention and compliment her when she does something good.
Stop punishing her because she thinks that is a good thing, she is getting extra attention when she is punished. The more you yell at her, the more she likes it because she wants that attention so she will do it more and more. so Stop it, and be calm.
Talk to her and show some affection towards her. she feels like no one loves her and her brother is more important than her.
This is a long term project, you need some consious effort in handeling her. it will take some time, but if you do it right, she will be a normal kid in less than a year.
Good luck

take away toys!!! Spank her little bottom. The mother needs to be consistent with this ! if the child does not Behave, toys and playing priveleges NEED to be taken away from her!!! all the time, every time. this kid is NOT the boss. she needs to be put in her place. she has turned into a bully and needs to be set straight. she IS NOT the boss in the household. No MORE, "Oh, she's so cute!" she is too used to getting her way with everything. Toys, no more, playtime, no more, hitting mommy? NO MORE. Spank her so that she knows that she DOES NOT have the upper hand.
Personally I feel that parents nowadays do NOT spank their kids when it is ABSOLUTELY necessary. if speaking sternly to the child does not work, it is time to take parenting to the next level.

I have 3 kids and at the age of 3 they was pretty good kids. My way to go about my kids is corner, talking to them after they get out, going to bed early, and time outs My kids hate it when I do them things. When I put them in the corner for the age they are. Make sure that you stick with what you say you are going to do or they will think that they can get away with what they do. be strong it will be hard at first but they will start to do better and it will be A LOT BETTER on you when you stay with it. Good Luck

Children thrive for attention, good or bad. Is the baby new? If so maybe she is a little jealous and needs to be reassured that she is loved. If that isn't the case and the situation gets worse maybe she has a physiological disorder, take her to a clinic and have her evaluated.

Tell her if keeps hurting her mom, her brother and pets that you are going make her do the bad girl exercise. The bad girl exercise is when you make her stand in front whoever she hurt for 5 minutes with her arms straight out in front of her and her knees slightly bent like in a squatting position. After squatting like that for a while, it starts getting very uncomfortable so you can use that tactic to make her behave.

I am sure there are certain things that the kid enjoys. Try to take away toys not for a few hours but for weeks. No watching TV shows she enjoys, and no yummy snacks like ice cream treats, etc. You might want to take her to a child counselor to find out what makes her so angry.

It sounds like she is acting out some frustration. Tell her no, that is not okay, and take away her toys. Each time she does it, take away something that she likes to play with. Most importantly, get her into some counceling. The rules need to be very, very clear: NO HITTING. Period.

she keep punishing her. don't give in to her when she sits on the couch for hour maybe she will quit. maybe she doing it to get your attention to her and not the baby's. my friends son did this all the time. he a kid in the head with a frying pan. keep her on the couch for an hour or so. if she falls a sleep don't let her up.

Remind them that you love them, but you dont like the actions they are doing.
Its tough dealing with someone with a lack of communication skills, be consistant with your feelings and really listen to what they have to say/act.
