146. Shoving toys off the table to make them disappear from sight
and then going to retrieve the toy is completely developmentally appropriate for that age. It wasn't misbehaving at all. If he'd actually sat there sedately in his mother's lap in a new environment (the set of the show with all the cool cameras and the crowds) I'd be concerned. I'm not at all sure how she was supposed to use a perfectly appropriate technique - redirection - while giving an interview. :rofl:

I'm still chuckling over the sheer number of people who think that a toddler *should* sit down and shut up.
