“When young children hit, bite, kick or hurt someone else, it is not evidence that they are learning to hurt people… or learning that hurting people is ok. In fact, it is evidence of learning how to communicate and self-regulate, at the same time. Something adults struggle with. Most children will learn more effective and less harmful ways of expressing their feelings. This takes time though.” J. Milburn ⭐Want to know more about why this happens and how to respond to it?
