This seems early. My 8 mo is already throwing a fit if he doesn't get what he wants. If he wants my cell phone (all the time) or remote control (daily) and I don't give it too him, he shrieks. I always maintained (before I had kids, hah!) that I'd never be one of THOSE parents. But more often than not, I just hand him my cell phone or whatever else he's begging for. How do I nip this in the bud? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Tell him NO and take it away. Let him yell. [ Reply | More

decide if it's really worth denying him (ie it's something dangerous for him to play with). if it is, tell him no and explain why. try distracting with something else. [ Reply | More
