Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

Be calm, firm, and consistent. Establish eye contact at eye level, make gentle but firm physical contact with the child, and calmly but urgently say No biting; biting hurts.. Then immediately redirect the child's attention to a different activity. Prevention is key. Focus your energy on preventing that first bite by providing close supervision and by removing sources of frustration and stress. Convene a summit meeting of parents and caregivers if the biting becomes chronic. Bring the adults together, not to blame anyone, but to brainstorm the problem and collaborate in problem solving. There is usually not a single problem leading to chronic biting, but a cluster of irritants interfering with the child's ability to develop self-control.
