Emily is playing alone with a doll. Janesta, who is 23 months old, walks over to Emily and takes the doll Emily was playing with.
Emily bites Janesta on the arm.
I swiftly pick up Emily and tell her, "We don't bite," and hold her in my lap for a few minutes. Then she runs to play with blocks.
Emily is trying to self-assert through expressing her frustration at Janesta's actions. She is using biting as the quickest and most effective means to protest since she does not have the necessary language skills ("Toddler Biting Behavior," n.d.).

Emily walks up to a boy in the class.
Emily bites the boy on the shoulder without any apparent provocation.

Emily is trying to get attention of the assistant. She probably knows that biting generates a predictable response i.e. attention of the assistant. This is evident in her calmness after the incident.

Acceptable forms of behavior need to be modeled and reinforced while unacceptable forms of behavior need not be supported. This all needs to be done before these acts and violent behaviors become imprinted as a part of normal behavior. Individuals are still going through hormonal and physical changes far into their twenties; neuronal connections are also still being developed during this time (Perry 2013). This means that if appropriate

exciting about video games is you don't just interact with the game physically -- you're not just moving your hand on a joystick, but you're asked to interact with the game psychologically and emotionally as well. You're not just watching the characters on screen; you're becoming those characters. Nina Huntemann, Game Over Violent Video Games: Do they Cause Violent Behavior?
