[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]His mom says he does this all the time whether I am there or not. It's not the attachment itself, it's how absolutely frantic he gets every single time he sees his dad. It just seems extreme to throw that kind of fit every time he sees his dad. The girls I've cared for never do that. They cry for their parents, but they don't stomp around and whine hysterically every time a parent walks into the room. [/quote]

Here is a little secret...not all kids are the same.  How are his verbal skills?  How often does he see dad?  Does dad do something special with him?

DS went through a phase like this when he was around 15 months. He actually just couldn't quite express his happiness in words yet but it was because he and DH had a game where DH chased DS around the house pretending he was a monster and would tickle him.  DS LOVED it and would try to jump (ie run in place) in excitement because he thought DH would always play that game.

I can't tell if you are trying to figure out if your charge has problems or what, but I think you are way overthinking this. [/quote]
