now I understand the meaning of toddlers with wings, that's him lol I had to take the Christmas tree down early because he would not leave the bulbs or the lights alone, that's just for starters, he also flys to the fridge and chews up the magnets on the fridge , had to remove all of them , he chews up my magazines, he chews wires if he can get a hold of them and his favorite landing spot is on my head :( he is also very clingy , he wants to be right with me every second of the day and if I leave the room for a few minutes he will come find me , is this the baby stage ? hopefully he is going to become a little more independant as he gets older
 
You have to teach them to be independent!!! Otherwise they will be clingy like that.

I saw a special on Sunday a few weeks ago and the woman featured had a male eclectus that hung on her 24/7 to the point she couldn't even go to sleep. The vet put him on medication but I can't recall what it was...I think it was Prozac but I'm not certain. And the funny thing was they went to commercial and never told of the outcome. He was a plucker too...

I agree with Mikey that perhaps teaching your baby now to be independent could prove beneficial in the long run. I keep Oliver busy with thinking/interactive toys...
