Our little one has just turned 10 months old and when she is standing up holding on to your legs, she has a habit of biting you. i dont remember this happening with our eldest so wondered if anyone could give me any tips on how to stop it or why she might be doing it. When she does it we do give her a stern NO and put her on the floor

What you are doing is exactly the right thing to do. My daughter used to bite other children when she was just started to crawl and it stopped pretty quickly...

If your child bites or hits you:

? Do your best to stay calm, even though the bite or hit may startle you

and hurt

? Use kind but firm limit setting ?no biting? and briefly put your child

down or move away just a foot or two

? Tell your child that the biting hurt

? Ignore child for 1?2 minutes

? Redirect and reengage your child in a new activity, or provide her with

words to communicate the reason for the bite.

Yes, my son did this about the same age but just grew out of it. I would do the same, just say 'No' and put him down. It was around the time lots of teeth were coming through so I would often give him a teether as well.

He's 16 months now and hasn't done it for a few months so I think it was just a stage.

    • Hi Sue, they were not local solicitors. Andrea’s was based in Wales and the other firms involved were large nationwide conveyancing companies (rather than conventional high street solicitors). I’m happy to advise clients and buyers privately on what I believe to be their shortcomings but I don’t think doing so in public on the forum would be appropriate, particularly as they are not locally based. My general advice would always be to steer clear of the big conveyancing companies as they are, in my experience, notoriously difficult to contact when the need arises and the case handler is often not a fully qualified solicitor and so issues have to be referred upwards to “technical teams” internally, which was part of the problem in Andrea’s chain.

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋
    • It's Inner London. You could move somewhere else?
    • They are people.  That's how people often behave.
