Answers  There is no need to discipline an 11 month old. He has
no other way of communicating with you and is not throwing a fit
to be deliberately naughty, push your buttons, or anything of
the sort. He is not capable of that sort of reasoning. It's
completely age appropriate behavior. When you put a baby of that
age in time out, it teaches him that when he is upset, you won't
deal with him... you will only be around him if he is
communicating in a way is he not able to. He will continue to
throw fits for quite a while. That does not mean that at some
point you will explain to him more appropriate behaviors, but at
this age, the only thing you can do
