[quote=Anonymous]My boy is 2 and is WILD! It almost seems like I'm raising him without manners. He only runs. I don't recall the last time he walked. Climbs everything! Honestly everything! I do go to drop in classes where I stay, like a preschool. He can do all the unstructured play ie, trucks, painting,water table, play doh, but as soon as the last thirty minutes of structured time (songs, and story time come he's done.) he runs away and returns to the toys. He's the only one. I have forced him to sit thru some of his favorite songs and he will occasionally enjoy a few bit cries when he's bored. He wants to run! He is the only child that I see that cannot be restrained In a stroller, screams and wails if he is. People,stare at me like I'm nuts and so I feel pressured to let him out.

My MIL is really annoyed by him and constantly tells me I need to discipline him. I have an angel daughter btw. I cannot discipline him so young. I do say no. I do grab him firmly. I do explain boundaries for safety. I try my best.

I took him to papers bread for lunch today even though I know we are only well suited for mc Donald's with a play area. Man it was rough. But I ate my salad! He ran around a lot. Sat too. There was a perfect angel sitting across from us with his aunties, mom, and grandma. They probably thought I was obscene. I went earlier to avoid most ppl, around 11.

So so happy people responded to this. I've also wondered, if this behaviour is normal. I asked,his ped who said YES! He is talking a lot. I know he comprehends, but most of the time too excited to care. [/quote]
