something i would like to know, because people seem to think that the best way to teach a baby to stop hitting, is to hit them.

it's a baby. you do not hit it. morons.
don't react to it, may take a few days, the novelty will wear off. that baby is getting reaction so it keeps doing it. same with biting. you say firm no, remove the baby from your lap. remove yourself and ignore the behaviour., it will learn super fast. I had a nasty biter/hitter. she is a gentle soul now.
no need to be drastic. pm me if you need help.

I disagree, but it does depend on the age. As for a toddler, biting back worked for me (my daughter never bit again) - my mother said it worked with my siblings and I too.
