[quote=Anonymous]Have you noticed if its a specific time when he does these things? For example, does he act out when you're involved in a particular activity? Or, if you're playing with the other child (not exactly not paying him attention but reading a book or you happened to start asking the other child about something he is playing with)? He could be looking for attention. I have worked with plenty of 2 year old boys, and some of them just need a lot of attention (hugging, asking them to help you etc). Definitely keep him active but don't do the same things everyday or every week. They understand somewhat at this age, so let him know if you rip a book- when we go outside you have to sit for the first 3 minutes (3 minutes (sitting) to a 2 year old is like forever to them!), don't let him getaway with misbehaving!! BE CONSISTENT!!

As for the parents, I would keep the parents aware of his behavior issues (but don't just tell them all the bad things), so when and if you decide to speak with them, they wont act like this is something new. I would send an email addressing your concern(s) and ask them if they would be available to talk for about 15 minutes on the day of your choice. This way they know that you are serious and if they really value you as their nanny, they will do their best to resolve the issue.

Best of luck![/quote]
