1. Instruct the father to hold the toddler down tightly to complete the examination.
2. Allow the toddler to sit on the parent’s lap and begin the assessment.
3. Allow the toddler to stand on the floor until he stops crying.
4. Ask another nurse in the office to hold the toddler, since the parent is not able to control the toddler’s behavior.
