Fighting the high chair
« on: July 15, 2005, 23:30:54 pm »
My DS is suddenly being defiant when we try to place him into his high chair for meals.  He stiffens up, arches his back and will even kep his legs raised so the tray can not be put on.  Why is this happening and how we can we change this behavior?

My DS still does this and he's 1.  I find if I give him something interesting to hold in his hands he'll often let me go ahead and put him in his chair.

i'm going through the same thing at 7 months but i manage to distract him by singing to him or also getting him to hold something.

I also let him play in his high chair with some of his toys so hopefully he thinks the chair is a fun place as well as eating.
