Scratching - and I dont mean DJing either

Well I have a little 9 month old that thinks that scratching my face whilst I hold her is fun, yeah sure is - NOT

I mean your looking your little girl in the eyes and then over comes the hands and wammoo I get this scratching on my face and like Steve Urwin would say “Crikey” that damn hurts.

I pick her up and play with her and I think, she thinks its a game and the out come is to hurt daddy well she wins alright.

SO what I started doing was running my fingers over her face but not my nails, and now she loves this and thinks its funny and starts laughing OMG I cant win.

Renee says to put her on the ground straight away so that she knows that it hurts and she wont do it. Good luck I would say!!!

Any thoughts how I might stop this???

Cheers scott
