A. hi mam , toddlers do such behavior to check boundaries those are set by the parents and also record their parents response to the particular situation and learn to behave like this in such condition. so , though it is hard , please stay calm consistent and positive. instead of thin papered books ,prefer books those have hard or chart type pages. whenever your child doing this try to distract your child by giving other toys or activities. and say no firmly to your child. give rough papers to tear and tell your child that he can tear those papers but not books.
