Someone has been hurt.
An adult asks the other child "Why did you do that?"
There is no reason for hurting others.
No given reason would be an appropriate answer, so don't ask for one.
Throughout the child's life it will never be okay to hurt someone because they did something to him.
"What happened?" is the question to ask.
"What could you do?"
"You can tell him what you think."
"What can we do to help him feel better?"
"Do you need something to help you feel better?"
This is not a quick fix, but a long-lasting learning experience.
