Gets your attention: What may have started as a response to an event may persist because it captures your attention. A 1yo will often be frustrated when you're not tending to their every want & even leaving them alone. Try monitoring baby without looking directly at him/her during episodes & only engage after the hitting stops.They do no long lasting harm but the fit can amplify if you always respond to it.
