Perfectly normal at her age and RARELY indicative of future behaviour. If she/he starts setting fires or biting kids at SCHOOL, then prob best to intervene.
She only bites YOU right?

Pattern of misbehaviour could develop.
Mother being bitten is not correct but biting another child has potential for grief.

update, I bit back, and it earned me a slap in the face....but will persevere with discipline. She promised not to bite again, and particularly another child, not sure if it will last, hoping it is a phase. I have taken some jewellery and prized stuff as collateral....
outdoor cat runs away as soon as she approaches it, due to rough treatment and a child at nursery has reportedly been manhandled in the pretend hair salon, curlers alledgedly were applied and removed with half of scalp attached....

can sing, whilst doing hand-stand
will force feed any pet with lolly-pops
brushes teeth by moving head and not the brush
and can already write name (but only in saliva on windows)

Because If she can, she could have a BIG Future in Hollywood

....her nursery teacher thinks it is due to high intelligence, as she has tested off the scale, a psychologist is dropping by to see her, and to advise the nursery how to handle her, due to the incidents regarding other kids, apparently it is their procedure? I maybe should not have mentioned that animals are scared of her, as I think they interpreted that as a warning sign like you see for psychos that start with animals, she is more in the catagory of over-enthusiastic care of them, but animals do not much care for being dressed up, hair braided etc....
the other thing that apparently worried them is they observed that she put a spider and a fly in a jar 'to see what happens' and then decided to save the fly, but both critters ended up dead in the confusion.
I think they are reading too much in to this behaviour, I personally think the biting is they only issue here.

Oompa, your daughter hasn't (as far as you know) killed any animals has she? |

no, never, but they have to be watched with them, as they can accidentally hurt them, plus the animal can retaliate too.
we had a fish burial and at the funeral there was wailing, hymns and she has decorated the grave with flowers, however she dug it up a few days later, to see if it 'got better', so like your video, I can see how that age group does not fully understand death .....

If this is how kids with high intelligence acts then I hope I have a dumb child.

My (step..thank god) niece who is four is the same way, she bites and hits my four year old daughter and her mom does nothing. she never disciplines her and it gets worse. At least you sound like you are on top of the situation, just keep correcting it , it will get better eventually. Three is a rough age, my oldest is a teen now and is awesome but god when he was three he was a holy terror.

I SO want this sweet cupcake.
She can be taught to rule the world later
Poot taste jokes aside.
No, it's not 'just' the biting.
Mini-me is luckily one of those kids who is likely older than her years.
She's frustrated with idiocy. Her energies need to be channelled.
Her IQ will be much higher than those she is forced to mingle with.
Check having a different nursery school. Look at Montessori education. This is not a main stream kid. There's a mind that can be developed & once that starts this behaviour will lessen.

thanks for all the advice, I needed the Summer break to recover from some of the embarassment at nursery. There now 3 mornings a week, and no more biting...yippee.
She is still under 'observation' though, their worries are 'lack of morality', no fear of consequences and some rudeness to teachers. Just been told since new term started, she was been running a fairly complex 'pyramid scheme' that involved the procurement of other childrens snack biscuit, they were hidden in her socks and eaten later whilst hiding. When teacher asked why she did it replied 'because I wanted to eat the biscuits' and when told the teacher did not like that sort of behaviour she replied 'you should go home then'.
GB, a non main-stream school had been sorted for age 5, but right now leaving her where she is, as it is best option at the moment.
Fortunately the headteacher sees the funny side, and says she will go far, but the manipulation of others and rudeness needs channelling....further tests showed her in 99.9 percentile range of IQ test for reading and math and off the scale/not classifiable for verbal comprehension and processing speed.

I opened this thread - saw your avatar - then accidentally read the first couple of words as " mini me almost 3 has bitten another child".
Sorry that's not really advice, but I thought that was funny
