[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 58319, member: 1514"] Putting anything on Keyanas hands would induce a meltdown of difficult child proportions...lol. Keyana can hit out at us on occasion but I think she is playing. I dont think she is doing it with intent to actually be mean. We catch her hands and say "NO HIT, that hurts!" She will hang her head and pout a bit then give a hug and a kiss. She has also started biting at day care they say but we havent seen any of that behavior at our house. Heaven help her the day she bites me...lol. She has a nice set of chompers and she will hurt me. Day care puts her in time out which is useless in my opinion because at her age she doesnt have the cognitive skills to process a time out. So far the only "punishment" we have really had to dole out is at bedtime. She used to go down so easy but I think her other family lets her stay up to all hours and fall asleep anywhere and I refuse to do that. She has to go to bed at a decent hour at my house and in her crib. Cory follows my lead at my house and agrees with me. Keyana will have to learn that there are different rules at different homes. We have had to give her a couple of soft swats on her diaper to get her to stop screaming her darned head off when its bed time. She is so obviously tired but fighting sleep and just getting worked up. The swats dont hurt but make noise and settle her down so she will lay down and hold her glow worm. Then she falls asleep.
