I have a 1yo who slaps the other kids across the face; I bought another gate so I could divide my playroom into two and keep her away from the other kids. I assumed it was just the phase she was in.

Today at drop off, her big brother came in with her. The mom coached her to slap the brother across the face, while he pantomimed doubling over from the impact. They have choreographed this.

This is her last week here, so I didn't. say. a. word.
