Just doesn't listen!

At my wits end with my 2.3 yo Ds. He's ruining everything for himself as he jut won't listen and now he has to stay in the pram when we go out.

I also have an 8 month old so we use a double buggy, I need two hands to push it, it's long and heavy and I can't hold ds1s hand while I push it.

At the park yesterday I gave it another go and trusted him and let him out of the pram, he completely ran off out of my sight, won't come back when called. I had to ask a stranger to watch my baby while I ran after him. Scared and embarrassed, what can I do to teach him he needs to stay where I can see him?

You can’t unfortunately, he’s just too young. If he’s not in the Pram, you need to praise him constantly for holding your hand but also have him on reins, just in case he does run off.

Unfortunately at this age they are very impulsive and have very little regard for danger.
