My son is 2.5 years old . Whenever I take him out or go to someone's house or party or temple or any place he keeps running all the time. Even at home he does not sit still, he keeps running even while eating food, after getting drunk he does not listen to anything, he runs away and starts throwing anything.But at home, he sometimes listens when scolded, sometimes not.
