1.	Your 2 year old has a habit of calling you by your name instead of “Mom” or “Dad”. What is your reaction? It’s OK as long as it happens only sometimes. It isn’t acceptable and has to be rectified immediately. You feel bad or embarrassed but realize that it happens often because they’re imitating others.
2.	Your child has a habit of whining constantly. How should you deal with it? Listen to him and try to find out the reason behind his constant whining. Tell him to stop whining otherwise he’s not getting what he wants. Ask him to change his tone or to tell you in another way.
3.	Is it advisable to leave children in someone else’s care without saying bye to them? No, they should be told that you are leaving. Yes, otherwise they might create a lot of fuss. Maybe, but only if you are going for a short period of time and you know you won’t be missed.
4.	Is it OK if your child seems to need you one minute and the very next minute runs away from you? Yes Sometimes No
5.	Your child seems to want to be around you all the time. Is that normal? Yes Sometimes No
6.	Why does your child drop or play with his food? To irritate me or in defiance. He’s testing his control. He’s probably not hungry.
7.	Your child wants to eat on her own. Would you allow her to try? Yes, regardless of the fact that she will probably make a mess. Yes, only if she doesn’t create a mess. No, she won’t get anything inside her and she’ll create a mess too.
8.	Your child doesn’t want to try new foods. What would you do? You try again another day. You try to persuade him with bribes or threaten him to try it out. Find out if you can give him the same food in another, more appealing form.
