I have a DCB (2yrs) who has been with me for a month now. When he arrives he wants me to hold him or sit on my lap. If I don't do either he chases me screaming. He follows me everywhere. If he sees me go to another room blocked with a gate, he stands at the gate screaming.

More problematic...he wakes up an hour into nap and screams because I'm not by his side and usually will not go back to sleep.

I try to ignore his demands as much as possible. What else can I do.
