I am interested to see the responses you get. But in my experience, the behavior you are describing is just normal and typical, and the people who have 1 year olds that don’t want to get down and mover around are just abnormally lucky. And anyone who thinks you are raising a brat based on this behavior is overly opinionated jerks. She will probably not be able to sit still and good though church, dinner out, or any activity like that on a consistent basis until some time between 2 ½ and 3. You will have good days, bad days, and various phases for some time. Just try to put yourself in places where it is more convenient to deal with it. Sit in back of Church, go to restaurants where there are likely other kids, and parents who will be more understanding. And save any type of discipline for things you really want to stop – hitting, tantrums, running in the street, eating worms, etc. (at this age my kids responded to NO, removal of items that were frustrating them, and an occasional swat on the hand for really bad behavior, like biting your sibling)
