Welcome to YorkieTalk.
Did Bear have any experience with children before joining your family? A yorkie that does not have that experience may not be good with children. The quick, unpredictable movements and sounds of children can upset some dogs. My 2 yorkies do not trust younger people because the kids often taunt them in various ways. Dogs don't know what to make of the taunts and consider them threatening.
The not letting go when he was biting is concerning. That is unusual for a Yorkie. I would recommend a vet exam first to rule out a health problem.
