[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty much all terrible advice. OP, talk to your pediatrician. This doesn’t sound developmentally appropriate. Advice from a professional should be in order. [/quote]

Developmental educator here. Agree 100%.  Repeated biting needs to be addressed.[/quote]

Question for you then: what do you suspect the pediatrician will say based on a 15 minute consult in his/her office? What’s your armchair diagnosis? Could it really not be one out of control 5 year old whose parents have inconsistent consequences that the kid doesn’t care about? [/quote]
Op to this comment. Definitely not giving an armchair diagnosis. Good try. And agree w others that most Peds won’t be able to help a lot, but they may be good for a referral, or at least to start the convo. And to your other questions, I again suggest you get real advice. Not that of a nameless, faceless person on dcum. I’m a parent of kids w challenges, not an expert. You guys just spin your wheels up in here. Don’t. Your kids matter. Crappy advice is damaging.
