I am only 17 months old why are you hitting me?  I threw my toy across the room because I was frustrated and couldn’t use my words.  I am only 17 months old I don’t know how to talk yet.  I didn’t mean to break that picture frame.  I just learned how to really walk and I can finally see whats on top of all the shelves.  I was just trying to see the picture of my mom and dad.  I am sorry.  Please teach me the right way.  SHOW me.  Have patience with me.  I am new here on this planet and I don’t quite yet understand.
