Does the strength of your toddler surprise you?

Question

my 20 month old is extremely strong for his age. is it just me or does it surprise anybody else at the amount of strength and force that can come out of such a small child?

i was playing with my son and we have this game....he'll climb on the couch and lay flat against the back of it.....and ill lay next to him and make him fight his way out and he thinks its halarious but that boy literally put his feet on my back and started rolling me alil bit....and im a good 185 lbs.

i definately gotta get that boy in football asap....or else ill feel bad for the person that pisses him off on the wrong day when he's older.

Answer 1

my son and daughter were both like that and now hes 7 and shes 6 and now i have a 2mth old to go through the same thing that i went through with them

Answer 2

Yes I know what you mean.  My son who will be three in Sept has been pulling me up the driveway which is elevated in a metal radio flyer wagon since he was two and I am 144 pounds!  He also would and still does pick up things that seem to be way to heavy for  him to carry.  We should learn from them!

Answer 3

Never under estimate the strength of your child. My 2 yr old is very strong and surprises me every day
