what would you do if your baby is being bullied?


well,it's not really a real bullying because they are only less than 2 years old..

I'm talking about my friend's baby girl,she's 18 months old and she's turning into "not a nice girl" any more, and really kinda nasty to Lincoln all the time...

I love her a lot too , and i know they are only babies but seeing her make him cry all the time or every time we see each other is not nice..

she take things from him and screams in his face all the time, she pushes him and kicks him even not nice at all. I said NO to her when she does that ,also her mom but she just screams..

my friend said that she finds it hard to cope with atm...

tonight she pushed him and took things from his hands ,,i mean every time he touched something she just shouted at him....

Lincoln is a very kind and gentle boy and never take things from any babies... if she's upset he would give what he;s holding to her...

not sure what to do really

hope you don;t think i'm being mean or anything to a baby...

OH! she';s like that at the nursery too

That's hard because at this age they just really don't know how mean they are being. I think when she starts acting that way she needs to be removed from the situation, explain to her why she can't take the things and have her hand them back...she may not want to hand them back so you might have to push that a bit. But if she starts freaking out and being mean then just take her out of the room for a little bit and have her cool off. Well her mom should do that I mean, not you Right now everything a toddler touches it becomes theirs and they just don't have the vocab to say what they want so they can be "mean" about it...it should get better as she gets a little older, as long as something is done to try and fix it now, if she gets away with it each time then she'll learn that she can keep doing it

I think she;s a bit of daddy's girl too and I see that when she's naughty they only say NO but just once and she doesn't stop.
i don't know how to say to my friend about what to do when she's like that and not making her feel offensive.

When Lincoln does something naughty at home many times i just take him away from it if No doesn't work coz i don't like to say NO all the time...

i hope she will get better though mmmmmmmmmm.....
