What is going on with my 1 year old?

Okay, my duaghter started doing that too. I inquired about it to my doctor and she siad it was just an old fashioned temper tantrum. THe doctor said she was testing my husband and I so to speak. She said to basically ignore it. When she does it, make sure she'd not going to get hurt with whatever she's doing. If she's not, ignore the tantrum. THe doctor said that responding to it is the worst thing you can do cause it teaches them that if they act up then mom and dad are gonna get me what I want.

I did just that and Emma stopped throwing those tantrums. Every now and again she'll get frustrated if she's trying to do something and cant get it done and she'll cry,

I know all kids are different. I hoope you get the advice you need.

hi , both my sons did similar things at that age especially the head banging bit , i came to the conclusion that they wanted to see what reaction they got when they did it, either a positive (praise) or negative (telling off) reinforced the fact that they just wanted my attention . so i didn't give it to them. instead i used to put them on a bean bag and hold them there until they calmed down not looking at them or listening to the screaming after a while i think they realized that kind of behavior didn't bother me and it was just going to be ignored then when it stopped i gave the praise for the fact that that they were quiet and had calmed down.and remember the primary function of eating for a kid is for survival. they don't see it as a sociable occasion they just wanna eat and get out of there, maybe just get a baby sitter next time you want to go out for a meal ,or even bribery can work in that situation if your good and wait for your dinner you can have a really yummy pudding(ice cream ) or something , failing that try taking some crayons and paper with you to keep her amused during the bits when your not eating . good luck!

My daughter did the exact same thing and she still does at 2yrs. old. What I have been doing now is the stuff that she is throwing and getting mad about I take away. I tell her if she can't play with it right, she can't play with it at all. She doesn't like that, but I noticed she doesn't get mad a things as much. It is very frustrating for the parent. You just have to try to stay calm and tell her it's unacceptable. You may think your daughter doesn't understand, but a couple of times of telling her, she will.

My daughter did the same thing at a little earlier age. We seen Dr.'s and asked counselers, you name it we did it. You can discipline a child at very ealry ages of untolorated behaviors. It does take time. We started basically by hurting her feelings. When she would misbehave we would tap her butt or top of the hand. NOT HARD. Just enough to grab her atttention. It's a long hard time. Because after she cried she would throw herself back without caution. Try to implement a time out chair. Before you do any of this, though, I would see your Dr.. Good Luck. You'll need it.

Its normal she's just going through a phase most babies do it na deventually she'll get over it

terrible twos.

you just have to wait it out. guide her, dont punish, when she does something "bad"

thats about all you can do. shes too young to understand right from wrong, so you have to teach her how to do things, not just tell her.

Honestly... my sister and son do that and i have no idea how to make them stop... i try to offer my son things he likes so that he can behave... i know you may call that spoiling him... but what else can i do?

you should get her checked as she could be autistic
