Standing in the high chair

[Mom2Miri]

My DD has a new trick unfortunately. She delights in standing up in her high chair. She's skinny enough that no matter how I adjust the harness, she's able to wiggle out. I've tried "NO", I've tried ending the meal when that happens and neither work. Eating has never been a high priority item for her. Getting her in the chair is hard enough. Is it time to abandon the highchair?

I sold my high chair when DS (my youngest) was 10 months old for the same reason. 3.5 yrs. ago I bought a high chair that I loved but both my little ones really just wanted to sit at the table. Before pitching the chair completely you might invest in a booster. We now use a Safety 1st booster and have no complaints.

HTH,
