Pay attention to her, be close, don't leave her alone at any time, teach her, caution her, discipline her, keep her busy to engage her, pray about it! You can also see health carers.

Get a bigger apartment and continue doing the work of a good father by clearing dangers for her to play.

Hello guys. Greetings to you. Please don't mind muy grammar, I'm not here for English classes lol.
My first child's almost 3years, trust me that girl can be playing and roaming about 24/7. As long as she's not asleep, her mum and I are always talking, don't do this, don't do that. Sometimes I lose my cool you know. I'm planing to enroll her into a conventional school by September because she seems really smart. My question here is, how do I handle her, she can't just stay in one place and our apartment is not really safe for her to be playing outside.
Parents and expert in the house please assist a brother with an idea of what to do.
Thank you

Buy her tablet phone, download games, load her with different cartoons videos monthly, tutor videos, YouTube kids for her to stream. Watch her sit in one place all day playing with her tablet.

Also by 3 she should be in school already, her teacher will teach her many things you can't teach her at home.

Don't beat her, she will outgrow it.

First thing I would ask is where are you based? Reason is so that you don't get caught up by social works officials. Secondly, do you indulge her in sugary food like ice cream etc? These things energizes kids and make them hyperactive. Lastly, you might want to engage her in physical activities outdoors to wear her out and cause her to sleep when she ought to. Take her to parks if available.

It is called ADHD, search it up google, there’s treatments for this cos it’s not a good sign, if left that way she can develop lots of bad behaviours while growing up

First thing to do is to reduce her intake of any sugary food or drink

Also reduce the amount she spends in front of the screen like TV, iPad or tablets, do these more often

That would make it worse, she has ADHD and her time in front of TV or iPads should be reduced drastically, also her sugar intake

Just be a little bit patient, most times when children are hyperactive like this they tend to be very quiet and reserved when they grow up

My brother, I understand you perfectly. Am going through same here. Those that have not gone through this will never understand you. Just keep on caring for her as you don't have any solution to that. She will pass this stage.

My daughter is also very hyperactive

She's just a year old and she's very disturbing, smart and always putting the house in disorder

She plays from morning till night and she seems too brilliant and smart for just a year old child

I once complained to a medical doctor about her hyperactivity and I was told I should be grateful that I have an active child and not a dullard. I was advised to always watch out for her and make sure dangerous objects are kept out of her reach cheesy

Now I have accepted my fate and all I do is take dangerous objects from her reach

Better! God bless and keep her.

Please if you take her away from a dangerous area, does she struggle, fight and cry irritably to go back there immediately?

Yes she struggles and fights back to return back there. Her stubbornness will make you release her so that peace can reign and and she'd return back there, but recently, she's been calming down since we adopted the yelling method. That yelling method seems to be working like magic compared to before that we'll keep quiet thinking she's just a baby

Now, she's beginning to know she's doing something wrong each time we yell at her unlike before. If she's doing something and we don't yell, she's continue with it even if she's spoiling and damaging something but when we yell, she will start feeling discomfort and disinterested in it the more we intensify the volume of the yelling

Each time she goes to the fridge to open it, we quickly yell at her that we'll beat her if she opens it. She will take a pause and then look at the fridge for a seconds and then return back without touching it. This wasn't the case before that we would have to stand up every minute to collect one or two things from her.. Omo! That thing is frustrating and energy draining.

We've been keeping quiet but that seemed to be worsening the case until we adopted the yelling method. Now, we just yell without standing up most times

Don't yell at kids at thr slightest provocation pls. There are better ways to handling them.

Your facial expression, your calling and chiding and reprimand will go a long way to guide her rather than yelling and barking out.

Well, It's not the kind of yelling you're talking about and yes yelling is good especially when it has to do with the most dangerous stuffs in the house

"Stop that, don't touch it, don't go there, drop it, come back here!" and that has been working

And yes, even if it means barking, you have to bark out and do everything you can just to discourage and make them withdraw, especially when dangerous stuff in the house are involved.. You can't always be at alert 100% as it takes just takes one second for them to do one damaging stuff

Now, she doesn't touch nor go near fire no matter how close it may be and she rather watches from distance.. She knows it must be so dangerous since we're always at alert each time she's going close or at the verge of touching it

And as for facial expression, name calling and chiding? Haha! It doesn't work, especially if your child is hyperactive and stubborn at the same time cheesy

Thank God yelling is working for your baby. I wish yelling could work for our own over here. If you yell at this one, it is just a waste of effort. You have to wrestle and clip him if you don't want him to touch or destroy something. But he willdidn't make a very loud irritating cry that will make you leave him to do whatever. You have to be in constant motion as long as the boy is awake and he doesn't sleep on his own. You have to pin him to the ground and tap tap tap tap him hard before he could get a sleep.
For those talking trash about you being ungrateful to God or telling you that it is good for a child to be like that, my prayer is that God should give them one like that in the nearest future. They will come and share their testimonies aswear cheesy
