Hello again! Shaun's doing great and he's finally starting to expand his vocabulary! But now he's become more and more active, I don't know where he gets his energy from! It seems he never gets tired! My problem is how to discipline him at this stage since he now understands how appliances operate--if he wants to listen to music he would point to the dvd player, if we don't turn it on, he would try to turn it on himself (he knows how to power it on)! Of course that's not a good idea, because he has to stand on a chair to do so (he can do it but I'm so afraid he might have an accident!)... And of course the dangers of electricity is there! Now if he was able to finish an entire vcd and still wants more he would have a tantrum so we usually give in for a second vcd, but after that and we tell him that's enough for today, he would throw a bigger tantrum (he is just doing this we observed because he now understands that that is the way he would get what he wants)! Any suggestions on how I should discipline him at this stage?
By the way sometimes we play his favorite vcd of kids' songs more than 5 times a day! He is so into it, he dances and sings along! But I know too much exposure to tv is bad! He has his time outdoors and he runs and plays a lot but every time he's inside he insists on listening to his cds... Is this bad?
