I have a new one year old that just started. he has a big sibling that has been known to play rough.

Today is day 2, and there hasn't been a drop of crying for mom. He's crawls right in without even a goodbye. What a dream. But! He throws dishes, has no idea how to sit nicely in a high chair. Is completely attracted to gates, stairs and anything else he shouldn't be around. LOL And he's a tough one. Takes toys, pushes by, throws, everything is in the mouth.

So, my plan of attack is simply to shadow constantly for the next while until I can gain some trust in him. I think consistency is the key and if that means that we are unscheduled and flying by the seat of our pants for the next week or so then so be it.
