let her hear you telling the "victim" that you want to be notified when these incidents occur so you can punish her for it - and then actually punish her when it happens

That is a tough one, but only way I know that works is to bite her back... Of course, you would have to sit her down and have a talk about biting. You may not agree, but it worked with my daughter, and it has worked with every other parent I know that had a similar problem. Curious though, does she do it to everyone and anyone or just certain people?

Tried both of those. Even tried putting soap, vinegar etc in her mouth when she does it, its normally to kids her age or younger. She won't do it if there's older kids around

Well the plus side, that phase usually only seems to last a short time. Only other thing I can suggest is that she gets her favorite thing taken away, if it happens again, her next favorite thing, etc... Of course explaining why you are taking away her stuff away, but dont only do it when she is bad. Talk to her at just a regular time about what is right and wrong.

Time for some serious punishment. Explain what will happen and then when she acts out, follow through. Find the things that are most important to her and take them away and escalate the time/number of things each time she does it.

Sounds like she has learned that the consequences of her actions are worth enduring and will continue to do it until she realized that they aren't. Go nuclear out of the gate and stop it in it's tracks.

She is exhibiting "bullying behavior" and the roots are usually because she feels like she is being bullied somehow and is passing it down to establish a feeling of self control. You need to address that too and get to the root of it. Beyond stopping it, you need to force her to explain 'why' she is doing it and then help her get over it.

so the old - how would like it if someone did that to you thing?

Dang, is that just from age or did a storm or damage happen?

Age and crappy builder-grade materials. All cheap wood construction materials that were never primed and only painted on the outside after the house was built. The windows, doors and siding have apparently been rotting from the inside out behind the paint and now every window and door on the house needs to be replaced along with half of the wood siding. Then it all needs to be repainted. The house is only 18 years old.

I wish it was storm damage...I have insurance for that. :(

i have seen that work umpteen years ago, maybe not so pc today. My little brother bit me and step mom bit him back. It was the first and last time he ever bit anyone, but she left marks and put the fear of God in his ***.
