My ll.5 mo dd keeps hitting my face and laughing as she does it. I put her down, say no hitting and turn my attention away from her, but it's just not working. Any suggestions? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

How long has she been hitting you? It takes 1000 times of you disciplining her before she remembers. [ Reply | More

Oh great, it's only been about 10 times. [ Reply | More

I hold dd by the wrist and say, "no hitting." Then I make her hand stroke my face and say, "gentle, gentle." I think she thinks it's a kind of game with me, but when she was out on the playground with another (younger) kid, I said, "no hitting, gentle." And she stroked the other kid's face. So, I think she's getting it. [ Reply | More
