Since Aidyn was determined to play on the steps, or die, we finally found a compromise. We now have a baby gate put up after 3 steps where there's a landing and turn before going upstairs. Now, Aidyn is allowed to play on 3 steps and can't make it up any higher. I believe he's only really wiped out (bad) about once or twice.
He's become GREAT at climbing down backwards and he's quickly become a professional and going up and down.
Thankfully, we now don't have that daily battle of telling him "no" repeatedly over and over again. He now can play but (hopefully) be safe at the same time.
He loves the steps and will spend a good length of time sitting there reading his books. I'm glad we were finally able to come up with a "safe" compromise for us all.
