Hi All,
I thought I'd ask do children grow out of being hyper? Because my 21 month old is very active to say the least. He has been this way since he was in the womb,he used to move around so much.I couldn't get a good nights rest and haven't since he's been born. I love him to pieces,He wears me out to the point that I snore like someone that has been at the bar all night.Will he grow out of this? Oh,I don't give him alot of sugary juices our diet is almost totally vegan.

If it is just a natural thing and not ADHD or anything like that then he probably will. My older brother is like that and just naturally as he got older and he matured, he became calmer and not as all over the place. He is very young though and so maybe once he is older he will have more things to occupy his energy like school and stuff he might slow down then

i didnt get to finish my post so here i go/yes we can grow out of this and have full productive life/steps need to be taken to avoid the problems i had growin up and also some times medication helps to learn the correct behaviors but eventually things will be as normal as society will allow in another life this energy is an asset instead of a liability and most his and lows can be evened out /also youll find a higher intelligernce that will overwhelming to most and wantin to talk alot to expend energy that is untapped/read alot to your child its calming and soothing for both of you and satisfies the need for input/ like johnny 5 we need input and a computer is a great source for fillin the constant need for information /now is the best time to start finding out what direction your child is trying ti reach out to /theres an adult trapped inside a child screamin to get out in a hurry and stimulis in knowlege will definately help calm yours and their hiper nerves ,you have a gifted child and alot of excitement comin your way i ended up with 5 children growin up with genius statis having all the tools and information they could soak up to reach thier goals now lets see if they actually use it lol
