Branded For Life

My daughter (4) is a biter. Now she does not bite everyone just her big brother (he's 7). Over the weekend we had a wrestling incident (she was trying out the Wonder Woman costume) and she was pinned down. What else could she do but bite my son on the rib cage. There have been other incidences and other marks (on the shoulder, on the back and on the leg) but after three days this one is still noticeable on his stomach. Will he be branded for life? In college will his girlfriend say. "where did you get that scar" and will he have to respond, "my little sister bit me". That does not sound very cool to me and surely it won't to him either. I must try to come up with a better story. Also I must get her to stop biting.
