I have been looking after a 16 month old since she was 11 months old. She was so sweet and gentle and gave everyone hugs and then about a month ago she started hitting, pinching, and squeezing cheeks. I try to tell her be gentle, no hitting, etc.
Another baby started about the same time as this behavior started, so I don't know if its jealousy/attention seeking or if it would have happened anyways.
Anyone have experience with this age, do time outs work? Hopefully this is just a phase, as I feel like I can't turn my back on her without her hurting someone. There is a 15 month old and a 13 month old, (as well as 2 older children who she doesn't touch). The other 2 babies are starting to pick up on her behavior.
Help!
