    Reminder to use words when frustrated. That hurts mommy and try not to make a big deal.  I've noticed my daugher does it to her daycare provider/others when she is transitoning to go home from the fun that is there.

    Audrey only hits her sister. They will be happily playing then all of a sudden she smacks the baby in the face. We started doing time outs but I'm not sure they are working. Basically she hits sister, says 'time-out', then runs to the time-out chair. Although she went from hitting her several times a day to now just once or twice a week.

    DD hits me sometimes. She never hits DH but she will try it with me. If I say "Mommy owie!" she laughs. So I have to say " Mommy Turt!" Because thats how she says Hurt. Weirdly enough when YOU say turt to her she says hurt back lol

    Our daughter is hitting us sometimes too. She hasn't really hit other kids though. We usually grab her hand and tell her "no hitting". I tell her if she does it again she won't get whatever we were going to do next (ex: "no book before bed if you kick me again", while changing her diaper), and if she does it again she doesn't get what I said she wouldn't get.

    But mostly she has started being bossy to the dog and other kids. She tells them no and stuff. I pull her away and tell her she is not the boss, etc. If she takes something from someone I take it back from her. Etc. Its really hard to figure out what is working and what's not. Sometimes I feel like nothing I do is working when she is being mean or in a bad mood.
