I'm not sure you can get called a 'bully' just yet? DS1 can be soooo awful sometimes. More often at home than when we are out (which is a blessing, but it does mean that some people don't believe me when i say he is a hitter/pusher). He is very rough with his DS2. He's normally fine at Occasional care, and although once the teacher told me that he was pushing around the little baby whose mum was on kinder duty. Embarrassing - he picked on the little baby! But he's done it to big kids too.

I think we all go through stages like this with our sons and daughters (regardless of their hair colour). We need to be more aware that they are little kids and they are struggling still to understand the big world and their place in it. Instead of calling a young child a bully in our head, maybe we could say to oursleves - there goes my child on a bad day, and that poor mum, she must feel like i feel sometimes.

Jennie13. Biting is really really common at that age! It's often about an inability to communicate and frustration. You shouldn't worry. She's still just a baby - and it really will pass. Keep going out!
