Why does my baby keep running away from me?

I know how that feels, and it's not great. My daughter was like that for a while l.
Maybe you can have some fun time with him, so he knows you're not always strict? And maybe try not to yell too much?

Yup:( just hate the whole single parenting thing. I feel Im always angry.

I don't live you my parents but my children adore them, they give them what they want and have endless fun with minimal rules 😂 grandparents are supposed to be fun, parents are supposed to have the boundaries :) my daughter will always run to grandma but when it comes to her needing something or being sad she always comes back to me because she feels safe :) your little one is probably the same:)

Would it help for your parents to do some of the parenting stuff , not just fun stuff, to help you out? What do your parents do when he runs to them? That sounds shit, I’m really sorry to hear - it must be really hard

I have come to come to learn that telling off a toddler ends in her laughter at me or doing it more so I save my energy. I am always connect and redirect now… unless she is throwing herself on the dog and risking a bite - that gets a firm no 🫠

Hope it gets better for you soon x

We were on holiday for 3 weeks recently in a home that was not baby proofed... I was the one constantly watching to make sure he does not harm himself...he did start to push me away which was a little hurtful but I think it's very normal! They want to assert their independence
