Speaker 1 (00:00):
Robin tearily Kid on Brisbane's Kiss ninety seven three. I
got a phone I actually was. It was a text
I got last week rob from Raffi's mum. Raffi's four,
our little boy, and it just said Raffi bits someone
at day care. Oh man thet Yeah. And I was
so disappointed because he did bite, Like when he was
about two, he sort of went through a little stage

(00:21):
where he would bite me and like, for example, if
I was drying him with a towel one time, he
sort of like, I guess he just wanted to bite
into the cotton of the tower and he bit through
the towel and bit my leg and it hurts so much.
And so I really got serious about okay, we don't
bite people ever. And it's been over a year. He's
like he's he was clear.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
I know, but see two, it's like they're experimenting with
what they can put in their mouth and what that's like.
But four he's more intentional, Like, was there a circumstance
around it in which he was trying to get a
kid away from him?

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (00:50):
It was over a ball. Okay, how idck is being four?
Like he had a nightmare the other night, and you
could hear him through the night and he was like,
he you talk my ball, Like this is the worst thing.
The worst thing could happened in his life is a
ball being taken. So apparently, and I went to daycare
and that and I had to, you know, fill out
the report and sign the thing. And so he'd bitten

(01:11):
another kid and he was slood. No, no, the kid
was running around by the time I got there, and
he was fine, but you know, there was a ball
snatching incident, and so that I you know, he's waiting
for me, and he looked sheepish when I picked him up,
and I said, mate, come on, you know, you know
you don't bite people, no matter what. And I said,
we can talk about it later. Then he started crying,
so I don't want to talk about it. And I

(01:31):
was like, I know, but.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
We have to talk about it.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
So we're in the car, and you know, I got
the story. But I said, okay, but no matter what,
we can't bite people. It doesn't matter, no matter what.
We're not animals. We don't bite people. So no matter
how angry you get, no matter how mad you are,
you can't bite someone. And and and I think that's
cut through like he you know, he was like, and
then straight away goes, can I get chippies? I was like, mate, No,

(01:54):
there's not chies today.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
There is a natural consequention, b Yes, please say that
to a four year old.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yes, And then you know, throughout the rest a couple
of hours, he kept asking for different treats, and I go, Ma,
you can't have treats today because you bit someone? Yeah,
and then I'd start asking him why can't you have
treats because I bit someone? That's right? But that night,
once you've gone to bed, Naomi, my girlfriend had a
funny question. She goes, imagine if you could just bite someone.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
Imagine if imagine if it didn't matter, if you could
just be a four year old for a minute and
and someone just annoyed you at work or wherever, and
you just bit them and.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
The only natural consequence was that you didn't get a treat.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yes, that's right, there's no big It's fine. Everyone's going
to be playing after you're not fired.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
No one's calling in thirteen one oh six five. If
you could bite someone, is this where you want to go?

Speaker 5 (02:46):
As?

Speaker 3 (02:47):
It is?

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Okay? Have you thought about it?

Speaker 5 (02:48):
It was fine?

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Oh yeah, I got someone? Who would you bite? And
why tell us about it? Thirteen one oh sixty five.
I'm going to check traffic. I'll come back and see
who I'd buy. It's Robin tearing Kip and to the
David's and the Karens. We know, we know that you
can never bite someone.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
It's never o cable, it's not appropriate any kids in
the car. This is just a stupid game that we're
playing on kids ninety seventh three, and it's kind of fun.
It is. If you please don't use us as an excuse.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
If just for a moment you had the sensibilities of
a four year old and the only sort of repercussions
would be no chippies that afternoon, and you could bite someone?
Who would you bite? And why you want to know who?

Speaker 5 (03:23):
I want to know who?

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Because Naomi asked me the other night and she mentioned
someone at her work straight away, So I guess I
got into a work. She had one loaded by.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
The way, one is now just looking into it.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Got straight into the work. But I would bite you, Robin,
would you want I'd bite you?

Speaker 3 (03:39):
No?

Speaker 1 (03:39):
I look, I wouldn't always bite you. I don't want
to bite you all the time. But there's some things.
Can I tell you what it is? You know, when
you say you think I want to bite you when
you do that?

Speaker 5 (03:48):
What do you mean?

Speaker 1 (03:48):
You know when you go you think and I'll go, okay,
oh yeah, And that's why they went to Japan. You go,
you think I want to bite you?

Speaker 2 (03:53):
When you do that?

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Oh my god, everyone, I can hear the producers through
the soundproof. But yet then you guys, you thought of someone?

Speaker 5 (04:07):
Yet?

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Who do you want to I'm just going to annoy you.
I love games.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Who do you want to bite? If you thought of someone?

Speaker 5 (04:14):
Yet?

Speaker 2 (04:15):
We'll see I always thinking of someone in my life.
And it would only be because when she's excited, she
bites me. Oh yeah, And I've thought about many many
times turning around and biting her back. And that's my
dog Molly. Yeah okay, I'm like, you wouldn't bite me
if you knew what I felt?

Speaker 5 (04:30):
Like, yes, maybe you should.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
And she's like just.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
Biting because she's like, Hi, mam, I want to go.

Speaker 6 (04:34):
For a walk.

Speaker 5 (04:35):
Let's go for a walk.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
Let's go for walk, Let's play. And I want to
get her little butt for a little poor and thirteen
one oh sixty five. If you'd like to play along,
who would you bite and why? Cariinn out of North Flags.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Hello. You know who I would bite is every mother
in the drop off phone at school who feels luck.
They need to get out of the car, keep the
bags plastic kid tack, give them a kiss, light in
my notes. Yeah, tell them dinner. Oh and then there's

(05:10):
four hundred and fifty two thousand cars behind me, And
then they get in the car on to check their phone.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Oh yeah, I think that is a mutual biting situation.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
I think a quick bite to get the point across
their heads. Thirty one six fives out number Meeker, Grace Kelly.
It's Robu, Terry and Kip on kiss ninety seven three
eight twenty four. So my little boy, Rafael, four years old,
sold his problems with biting last week, which obviously I
explained to him, is disgraceful. Never okay. However, if it
were okay, who would you bite and why? Just just

(05:41):
to solve your problems?

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Yeah, I mean, you know, Twilight made it okay for
a couple of years.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Then they tried, they made biting cool.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Yeah, they tried anyway forever Aimes leave Underwood, who would
you bite? And why it.

Speaker 6 (05:52):
Would have to be my fifteen year old, teenage horrendous
daughter at the moment?

Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, and why would you bite your own child?

Speaker 6 (06:02):
Well, when you have a teenager who sort of get
it with a teenage attitude sometimes takes over from everything
in the house.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Yeah, and you know, words, it gets past a point
where words or even actions or consequences or threats mean nothing.
And somehow a bite seems like the most logical thing
to do.

Speaker 6 (06:22):
I reckon it would suffer I know.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Right, Yeah, it'd be more discussions.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
Mom, just bit me?

Speaker 2 (06:30):
Wow, Jennifer Belmont, who would you bite?

Speaker 5 (06:34):
And why i'd bite the little girl who's bullying my daughter.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
Really hard?

Speaker 2 (06:43):
Okay, so tell me about your daughter. How old is she?

Speaker 5 (06:46):
She's twelve and just started grade seven high school. And
she's a natural blonde, so she has very fair eyebrows,
and apparently that's enough to be bullied. Blonde eyebrows was
so frustrating.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
I would suggest that your daughter is both gorgeous inside
and out and the other girl is jealous.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
Look, that's why she needs to be bitten. Right by the.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
Way, if only we goodbye, yea, if only please don't
