My son is normally a wonderful kind angel Seriously though, I mean when we go to the playground he runs up to the other kids and hugs them and kisses them. Two weeks ago I put him into a child care on Fridays and since then he's started biting and slapping. I don't know if its something he picked up from the day care, or something he's doing because he's upset. In any case my partner said bite him back, so I half heartedly did, which did nothing at all. Then after being on the recieving end of a rather hard chomp I broke down and followed my partners advice, I returned it with a chomp of my own. But afterwards Carter seemed so upset he wouldn't even hug me goodnight, I'm afraid he's scared of me now! Help!
