annabel2712 · Mar 18th, 2012, 17:27 PM

last night i baby sat for my best friend..
i had to bring my daughter, she has a cold & my mom couldnt watch her cuz she has bronchitis..
anywhoo!
there was a 15 month old & 6 yr old..
i felt like a single mom last night/;
the 6 yr old was glorious! but the 15 month old, not so much..
he was overly fussy, screaming, crying, threw yogurt all over the room, threw toys all over, hit my daughter, and tried climbing outta the crib..
omg.. it was horrible!!
i hated it, i just wanted to leave!
the family isnt like raising him right in my eyes, ive babysat other infants/toddlers, never bad like that..
he was great until after i bathed him..

At 15 months old having tantrums especially when tired/out of routine is VERY normal and nothing to do with how he is being raised.

I have to agree, if overtired etc they can play up. could have also been missing his mum etc. I know mine can play up when I'm not there, or even when I am but they're tired etc. It's certainly not anything to do with the way I'm raising them as they are normally the most polite, well behaved children. But even polite, well behaved children have their off days.

Thats how 15 month olds are

especially if they are tired... nothing to do with how they are raised.

And most likely he would be out of his routine because his mum wasnt there. Its a total change for them so I dont think you have the right to judge really

Do you usually watch him? my LO is 2 and would play up if i left her with someone who never puts her to bed. Its very normal for a 15 month old to play up

Doesn't mean he isn't being raised right?I will tell you now.. Aliyah has massive tantrums over nothing. Sometimes tries to bite me and can snatch things etc but she is deffo being raised correct. I teach her please and thank you and to be gentle but every toddler goes through these stages no matter what we do.

Just wait until your baby is a toddler and see how you feel if other people judge you on your parenting skills when they're having a tantrum..

Lolllll very normal for a 15 month old. You will soon see.

Wow what a naughty child,

Seriously though? questioning how his parents raise him because he was fussy and clumsy?

Deluded!
