He is so good in so many ways...but this attitude towards me is very worrying...

Has anyone any suggestions as to how to get them to open their mouths..or should I just let him eat anything..unless I know it will really harm him.

Hi Chrisann
I am new to YT, just joined this morning
The first thing I taught my little guy was "drop it" Every time he picked up something he shouldn't have I said "drop it" & then I would take it out of his mouth. Dezi is now 9 months all I have to say is now "drop it" & he just spits out whatever it is he shouldn't have. Hope this helps
