Tips for Caregivers:
- Often, children bite because they don't have the language (or enough practice with language) to say what they want/need. Work on short phrases with your child to help them know what they can say ("stop," "please," "no," etc.).
- If your child is still learning how to talk, you can teach them sign language or another physical movement to indicate if they want (or do not want) something.
- If you're working on not biting and substituting words or signing, be sure to be extremely responsive the first few times your child uses words/signs so that they understand that words/signs can help them communicate. Sometimes children bite if they've tried another form of communication that hasn't worked.
