My brother is a biter, and he has been for a couple of weeks, and he also fights with the other babies at his daycare (I have two other brothers who are 6 and 8 who he plays with so they wrestle and he joins in the 'fun') and my mom doesnt want him to get kicked out. My brothers dont like it and pop him in the cheek when he does it and he stops for a second the proceeds , my mom tells him no and he does it again. I either give him a teethign ring to chew on or sit him in his chair [bouncer] for 5 minutes everytime he bites some one, and we are tryign to find a more effective way to get him to stop. I think my way is the most effective, cause he usually stops for a while (like 3 days or more)

(***He is a one year old, who is always chewing on the nipples of bottles, my arm (!) and other people, please help!)

I will not bite him back cause I will get in trouble and I am not trying to be in trouble. I will tell my brothers that about the stop popping him in the cheek. Hehas teething rings but doesnt use the to chew on he plays with them (the car ones, the keys , the circles, and the others) or throw them at people. And when I put him in the chair he is close by so he doesnt get scared.

babies bite because their GUMS hurt from getting new teeth in.
Tylenol helps the pain. cold things and teethers help the need to chew and Orajel or Baby Anbesol helps with the gum pain.

I'm surprised your mom doesn't know this! good lord! sometimes kids just bite. it's a phase, but correcting him w/time outs is good. tell your brothers to STOP popping him in the cheek! if it is teething pain, that doesn't help and only frustrates him. he's just a baby!

definite, it does sound as though she is teething. whilst it is taking place it feels relatively sturdy to bite into something. furnish some cool teethers which you would be able to certainly wash. those will soothe her gums. additionally the teething gel is a robust thought, even nevertheless i'm no longer particular how in lots of cases that's risk-free to apply. Be organization and sharply say No in a noisy voice every time she bites human beings so as that she learns that it is not perfect. The habit is dangerous for her and others. Even a moist washcloth that has been stored interior the refrigerator is okay for her to bite on in case you're staying domicile. She is unaware that she is hurting all of us, it only feels sturdy on her little mouth. that's significant prepare her to no longer bite.

I used to teach preschool and had some biters. The way we stopped biting was to say NO in a very firm voice that startled the biters. This usually resolved the issue. Mostly though, we kept a close eye on the biters and tried to catch them and distract them before biting. One pediatrician told us that biting in a child under 2 isn't usually an act of agression. They usually bite those they like, just like they bite foods they like.

DO NOT BITE HIM BACK. That is an ignorant thing to do. The child is only one and would not even begin to understand why you bit him. If he throws things at people should you throw things at him. Should you burn him to teach him to stay away from the stove. Most kids will outgrow this.
Perhaps the other children are hurting him and his way of dealing with it is biting. It isn't right but some kids do it, some scratch and some pull hair. As he gets older he will begin to understand more and you can try to reason with him.
What you are doing is the best right now. Take him out of the situation, remove him from the other children so he can not bite them.

I had learned with my child, my little boy was a biter. He did not start it until he had gone to daycare, he was a little over a year old, and when I decided to put him in a daycare, he learned all kinds of bad habits. The first time he did it to me, I was shocked and spanked him and told him that , that was not a nice thing to do. After that, my mom told me the next time he bit, to bit him back, as soon as he did it, not to wait, I did, felt horrible, but it stopped him from ever doing it again. Good Luck With Him!!!

He's probably teething, poor thing! What did your mom do when the rest of you teethed? There are biscuits and all kinds of things to distract babies from chewing on human limbs.

I would have to agree with the other people.. Bite him back... he will stop after that cause he will realize it hurts and he won't bite again....
