#asktheexpert my child is 19munths old he is very active in everything but he is making more noises nd he is climbing bikes nd gates without our support and he is not listening to us wst should I do

A. He seems to have a lot of energy. Try to divert that energy into something else. Play along with him. Like role play or give jig saw puzzles or read with him. Help him to indulge in calm and relaxed activities. If u instruct and expect him to do it will only fail. U have to do it with him.
