Last night I took my 22mo-old son grocery shopping with me. He was AWFUL!!!!! He's usually a good boy - very active though! But last night I thought I was going to have a meltdown before I got my shopping done. He threw a fit when I put him in the cart. He pulled labels off of stuff and opened boxes. He pulled stuff off the shelves and threw stuff out of the cart. And he yelled at the top of his lungs most of the time we were there!
At first, I calmly scolded him. Told him no, asked him to behave. Getting more and more firm as time went on. Before we left he got popped in the mouth - for yelling. And I had told him no and to stop a million times. I was ready to SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I need some suggestions, PLEASE. At this point I'm ready to give up and find a babysitter every time I need to go to the store.
