Hey, you gotta do what you gotta do to ensure that your kids live longer than you!<BR/><BR/>I would never criticize or judge someone for leashing up their kids. Some kids like to wonder off on their own, and unfortunately no place is 100% safe for that kind of curiosity.wildtomatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16600756783674176552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819867652379793234.post-9069946721642404672007-08-21T16:10:00.000-07:002007-08-21T16:10:00.000-07:00When I took in my niece as a foster child, she was...When I took in my niece as a foster child, she was two, and very much over the top with the attitude of "youre not my mommy." She would glare at me, even stare me down. It was rough because I wasnt prepared to be challenged by a toddler. Im not going to tell you that she will grow out of it because it might be her personality, and even if it is just a phase, running out into the parking lot is an issue that needs to be dealt with immediately, even if it means not letting her feet touch the ground. Wouldnt you rather have her alive than prove your point? <BR/><BR/>You have to make it clear to her that it is NOT a game, it is NOT funny, and that you mean business. You have to stick to your "no means no" guns and put her in the corner, and make sure she stays. She can scream the whole time, but she has to stay. Try 1 minute for every year of age (since shes 1, 1 minute.) Remember, stick to it, dont let her control you, you need to correct her behavior by showing what is right. The leash thing is a fine idea, but be prepared to receive a thousand dirty looks.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07772943556185810887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819867652379793234.post-3801160623367578962007-08-21T14:51:00.000-07:002007-08-21T14:51:00.000-07:00I forgot ... no advice for you on the 'brave toddl...I forgot ... no advice for you on the 'brave toddler'.<BR/><BR/>I have one just like her in 'blonde'.
