[ ] Want to answer more questions in the Domesticity category? Maybe give some free advice about: Babysitting?
Have you tried to discipline her? if not you should. your child should not b hitting other kids and you should not be allowing her to do so. if you are trying to stop her and she doesn't then u should take away the things that she loves to play or have. then c if her habit changes. is she in school yet? ]
do you guys do time out? A time out mat, chair, or corner? The kids should not be allowed to hit eachother ever. Time outs, with full follow through, EVERY TIME, is the only way she is going to listen. If she knows she can get away with it even one time, then it's over, it won't work then.
Do you reward the kids when they behave too? Positive enforcement for positive behavior will accelerate things some. Eventually they will know, if they behave things are more enjoyable. Kids that hit and act that way, are hurting and angry inside, there is most likely a lot of fighting and instability at home. Creating a controlled and stable environment at the daycare will give them some relief, and they will enjoy being there. ]
