I have a personal issue, but if it can promt some debate, I'm all for it. lol
My baby, who is exactly 14mo, does this head banging thing when he is angry (and throwing a tantrum).

My last 2 did this, especially the last. He's 2 1/2 and doesn't do it much anymore, the peek was right around 2 and especially when we were at Disney World in June. He woudl bang his head on the ground, concrete especially or if we were holding him and he couldn't bang his head he would pull his hair and smack himself. He had his 2 year checkup the week after Disney and the Dr said he'll stop when he hurts himself bad enough. Apperently the perpetual goose egg he had on his forhead for 6-8 months wasn't hurting him enough! Like I said he hardly does it
My mom was so worried about it she suggested Autism to me but I know he's fine, just the youngest of 6 and a little late to talk.
< Sigh>

They do it for attention....As soon as she realized she wasn't getting attention from it, she stopped.

Mine wasn't doing
Andrew started doing it at about that age.
Concrete seemed to be Spencer's flooring of choice for head banging. He had a perpetual goose egg for 6-8 months!
