My daughter is really well behaved with me. But when her dad walks into the room she goes crazy. she starts grabbing his legs, trying to bite, jumps all over him, and laugh uncontrollable.
he works from home, and so it's not like she doesn't see him.
Why does she do this?

I am a stay at home mom and dad goes to work all day. As soon as he comes home she's an angel but all day long I deal with annoying things much like your husband does. I actually think it's BECAUSE we're home all day and they know what they can get away with. I'm guessing that since your husband works from home she struggles for his attention while he's trying to work and he probably tries to ignore it so she just continues to be "annoying". It sounds like my situation so it must be normal.

My 2 year old is such a Daddy's girl. She gets so excited when she sees him it's like it;s been years since she has. My hubby works from home too so she sees him just as much as she sees me. I have asked around too and found that she's just a Daddy's girl...nothing more to it.

Maybe it is because she sees her daddy more because he works at home. For some reason little girls seem to be more attached to their dads when they are young. I have always been a daddy's girl even when my dad was never home because he worked late shifts.

I read in Parenting magazine that kids usually play a little "rough" with their fathers because they think of their fathers as being the rough and tumble fun one. I hear that a lot of kids are like that with their fathers. My daughter is very close to me except when she wants to play rough or tickle him or be thrown up in the air. Its very normal.

Maybe spend more time with her dad. Also depends on her age all girls are daddy's girls,( so it may be a phase she is going through.

Maybe she knows that she can get away with it with her daddy. He needs to nip this in the bud.

Do they play a lot together? Maybe she thinks every time with him is play time.
