[quote=Anonymous]My 23 month daughter has had this personality type as well. People just don't understand, and I have decided that that is just fine because I wouldn't have either. I get frustrated sometimes with family members who think that their parenting style was why their children were more calm. So much at this age is straight up the personality of the child. I wouldn't change my daughter for the world, but I would hire a house cleaner if I could. Haha. We still go to lots of organized activities. I am the one chasing my kid around, and it makes it hard to talk to other adults, but it will pass. I refuse to let my daughter miss out on anything because she has trouble sitting still. I took her to a concert at the library today meant for kids. We would listen and dance until she tried to run on stage, at which point we would step out and take a breather and try it all over again. It is a challenge. Because we are definitely in the minority, it can fee so lonely trying to find someone who can relate, but my daughter is so bright, sensitive and just all around amazing. Her fearlessness and independence will serve her well some day! Hang in there mommas! It is okay to feel frustrated. [/quote]
