    Just to add my tuppence worth I think that where a lot of parents go wrong is by treating children like adults. A four-year old is not rational or logical and certainly does not understand the theoretical concept of other peoples feelings. They see bad behaviour only in terms of what is punished, all these little chats are a waste of your breath! OP watch them like a hawk and next time she goes to bite punish her immediately and seriously with a cross voice, naughty corner and the removal of her favourite toy to your bedroom for 2 days. Repeat as necessary and the behaviour will stop.

    perhaps you SHOULD fit cctv in the kids bedroom - at least it will convince social services its your daughter biting and not you.

    Sorry, but that was so uncalled for.
    You're only young once, but you can be immature forever :D
