I would just keep talking about it in a real casual, by the way.. manner about how we don't bite others and how bad it feels to get bitten...but not berate the kid about it. Also about finding an adult first when there's trouble.<BR/><BR/>Saw you on the Blogstalkers site so I came for a visit!Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01851909774982026207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1993183438900036633.post-43812912177280875072008-12-18T20:12:00.001-08:002008-12-18T20:12:00.001-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Karyn with a Yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14285346654214596394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1993183438900036633.post-68673277461503183022008-12-18T20:12:00.000-08:002008-12-18T20:12:00.000-08:00You are an awesome mom!

All you can do is talk to them about it and reassure them that is not the right way to respond and tell them the right thing to do.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15314573285977348597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1993183438900036633.post-55309273939422390102008-12-18T11:14:00.000-08:002008-12-18T11:14:00.000-08:00Thanks you guys, I appreciate your honest and kind...Thanks you guys, I appreciate your honest and kind comments and reassurance...

The fact that you feel horrible shows what a great Mama you are.<BR/><BR/>Yell? puhleeeze... they don't call us the LOUD family around these parts for nothing!<BR/><BR/>His biting is NOT your fault... it's a way of defending himself... he won't go through life as a vampire... I promise you.<BR/>Your talking to him, and reminding him daily of how he is supposed to handle these things will sink in.<BR/><BR/>Rejoice! At least he isn't the type of kid that is going to go through life as a victim!!! He's got hutzpah!

KJ was bugging him (meanign she was full on punching and kicking him)so he bit her...hard. She immediately stopped and has not been as rougfh with him since. We told him not to hit or punch her or any girl and he did not know how to defend himself.<BR/><BR/>I think maybe your boy iss the same thing? Soemone bugged him to a point where he primally did the only thing he knew to get them to immediately stop them.<BR/><BR/>While I am not saying keep yelling, I am saying please do not blame yourself and know that we all love you and know what a great job you do raising your boys.<BR/><BR/>~HUGS!~Simply AnonyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02451099553254296951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1993183438900036633.post-62499298289401853722008-12-18T06:22:00.000-08:002008-12-18T06:22:00.000-08:00You can lead a horse to water but you can't make h...You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink...or stop bitingKristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13685595771275144943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1993183438900036633.post-89556068534408119632008-12-18T06:12:00.000-08:002008-12-18T06:12:00.000-08:00oh honey.. we all yell.
