Toddler hair pulling??
My DS pulls my hair any chance he gets and also pulls his friends hair.
Is there something I can do to stop this?
I yelp and tell him he's hurting mama and yell to open his hand and to let go. He laughs and thinks it's a game
Help please!!!

A firm no and time out goes a long way with a lot of things.

Toddler hair pulling??
At that age, I think it's normal. I would just keep telling him no and emphasize that he's hurting people and redirect when possible. It won't click just yet because he's so young but eventually it will. It's frustrating but I think it just takes time and some maturity. I didn't start real time outs until 2.

Yes. Stopping everything and taking him out of situation will let him know it is not acceptable. Time out should be super short. "No" is a big part of it.
At 1.5, kid is def old enough to understand when they did something wrong.
