Many toddler’s go through a phase where hitting, biting, even kicking are commonplace behaviors. But rest assured. Although this aggressive stage isn’t pleasant it is quite normal. Toddlers do need to go through an aggressive stage because that’s a part of becoming their own person, part of that aggression is to enable them to become their own person and part of it is to help them to feel strong, which is a part of growing up.

It’s aunrealistic to expect young children to always be calm, cool and collect. In fact sometimes their anger is justified and as parents our goal shouldn’t be to squelch the emotion, but to teach children to express their anger in a healthy, non-violent manner.

The next time your child appears angry, try to “reflect the angry emotion,” “Say something like, "my goodness but you look angry. Have you had a bad day?" It acknowledges that anger is okay and that it's okay to be upset if you've had a bad day." It also helps them to give a name to the emotion and how to use words, rather than hitting, to express it.
