JRT only with six year old daughter

I have an 8 wk old JRT that is only aggressive with my six year old daughter, he growls at her, and jumps up to bite her. He has never actually hurt her, but im afraid he will. I have even thought about selling him. Does anyone have any recommendations for this type of behavior?

He is trying to dominate her. The Jack is thinking she's small I bet I can be her boss. She needs to pin him down by the skin at the back of the neck for a minute or two. She should also walk the dog on the lease, try to not let dog lead. Repeat as necessary.
