Question: hi, my daughter is 22 months old. my problem is how I manage my daughter 's behavior, some time she became so aggressive and restless , even some time she start biting and beaten up others. simultaneously she became stubborn too. whenever we go outside , she run everywhere and when we try to hold her she lies on the floor. please help.
Brief Answer:
Playing with other children will help her
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You can also think it as normal behavior. All children do this type of behavior when they are growing up. You can do the following to help the child:
Let her play with other kids in and around the house. Babies usually learn behavior by watching other children and adults. If there are no older children in house, then allow her to spend some time with other children. She will watch them and learn good behavior. Most of such behavior problems improve when children go to school.
Give her fatty foods but control the sugar. Hunger and sugar can also make children restless, irritable and demanding attention. Make sure that she is not hungry when you take her out to malls etc. Avoid giving her juices, carbonated drinks and sugary treats. Give her hearty meals that resemble the meals taken by adults in the house.
Avoid unnecessary medicines. Some medicines can also cause restlessness as a side effect
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
