DS is 18 months old. He can ride a scooter, can say a multitude of words, even in other languages and he has recently started tantrums. I'm not particularly brilliant as I just give in... As a result DS eats far too many ice creams of late.
Anyway, one aspect of this development I find very bizarre is that he has an obsession with his socks. Can't stand wearing matching socks, doens't want to remove 1 sock prior to taking his bath or going to bed... Obvioulsy for bath time, we remove the offending sock but he then launches himself outside the tub and we don't get to wash his hair... I leave him to sleep with his sock and remove it when he's alseep...
How much should I fight these things? And how to you rationalise or negotiate with a 18 months old. I'd rather he kept his sock in the bathtube but let us wash his hair then remove the sock and get nothing done....
Any advice please?
