Bad behavior or normal toddler behavior?

I’m a first time mom and not really sure how to educate my daughter and make sure she has good manners.

Sometimes she sees something she wants, and she screams trying to get it. I try not to give in and offer other things to distract her.

She also loves being outside playing, but when I bring her back into the house she throws a fit. My question is, is she throwing tantrums and showing signs of bad behavior or is this all normal for a one year old?

Tooootally normal behavior. Their communication and impulse control skills still need a lot of development. Like, a lot.

That’s totally normal, especially the screaming. When they cannot talk yet that is how they communicate with you. My daughter points to an object like a water bottle and screams so that’s how I know what she wants. It changes when they can talk.

Normal. I’m on my second and last kid. Trust me, you have plenty time still to instill manners. Don’t worry. 🙂

My daughter is exactly the same, if I take something from her that she can’t have she’ll start screaming and crying and throwing herself on the floor and if I lift her up to take her out the park she starts screaming. I’m sure it’s normal because they just don’t yet understand why they can’t have what they want
