We get hit, and we hit back. It is a primal instinctual reaction. It is a fundamental part of being human. Yet, what does that reaction signify? Most likely, we don\u2019t think deeply about it. Indeed, in the moment, the reaction is sudden, immediate, and done without contemplation.<\/p>\n
Allow me to venture a guess, however, that the instinct to \u201chit back\u201d comes from a certain set of instinctual needs that get processed almost immediately in the human brain. Those needs include the need to show the attacking individual:<\/p>\n

We stop the behavior by sending the child to his room, taking away certain toys, and showing that bad behavior will be met with consequences the child does not like.
