Thanks, ECE. I hate pick ups for two reasons, telling the parent of the bitten and telling the parent of the biter. The mom feels horrible and is working with me to try and stop it. I know it's a phase, and the mother isn't really giving me time to work with the child, but I understand her concern and it is her choice. I think I may just tell her tomorrow that I'm not ready to terminate the biter yet so if she wants to leave, then I completely understand.
It doesn't help that all my dck's are 16 months old, except for the boy who gets bitten (21 months) but ALL of them are pretty much non-verbal, so unfortunately, I can't really teach them any self defense things at this point (at least verbal ones). I've been teaching hands to yourself, etc... We shall see how long this phase lasts.
