[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - yes this is for real.. why wouldn't it be?

I'm a first time mom and don't have friends around with children of the same age. When I do see similar aged toddlers in public settings they don't seem as naughty as my son. For ex: at the library most children his age stick to their caregivers, sit close to them, will play with a book/toy, but are generally not creating chaos. My son runs around snatching books out of other babies' hands, tries to climb on everything, etc.

Most of this behavior I would like to stop at some point, but I don't know if trying right now is pointless / it's normal for this age.

If it is normal for this age, do parents just do nothing more than following the toddler around and cleaning up /containing the damage?[/quote]

I say this kindly, but the problem isn’t him…it’s you.

Stop calling him naughty and saying he’s “misbehaving”…he’s 15 months.

Also do some basic reading about parenting young toddlers, specifically around redirecting and positive reinforcement. Honestly this is the age it’s really easy to do it at…it will get a lot harder as he gets older and more stubborn. [/quote]
