After years of being hit and bruised and scratched by my daughter, I went looking for some statistics around how much children hurt their parents...in the face.
It turns out, I'm not alone.
And it is a big problem.
Honestly, if I look at nature's example, this is still a problem in the animal kingdom...but they're quick to give their offspring a quick shove or nip to make them stop.
Not that I'm advocating that, but I think that the lack impactful consequences is what keeps the injury pattern going.
So, I"m really glad that we have a toddler that can reason, finally.
And say "Sorry".
