While I was typing this, she ran up and slapped my leg while laughing, so I told her "No," then put her into my lap because the other kids are napping and I don't have a gate or play yard handy. She immediately wriggled out, fell to the floor, and ran off again. At pick up today, I'm going to ask how rough their play typically is and whether they let her smack her older sister. I do know that parents spank.
