Does your toddler act up in public, especially at times when you really want and need her to behave?

Remind yourself of your child’s young age and try the following:

• Have reasonable expectations. She can’t sit still for long, and she’ll need to be well-fed and rested.
• Prepare your child for where you will be and how you want him to behave.
• Bring a snack, toys or books to keep her from getting bored and restless.
• Be ready to leave if his behavior is too disruptive.
