Wait until he reaches the 'Terrible two' stage (2 years old) where the word 'demanding' takes on a new meaning. I suppose there is no sure method to deal with demanding children and at a young age, they have not grasp the idea of 'being instructed' yet. If they like your instruction, they will follow and if they don't, they tend to ignore it. When they are slightly older, they respond better to instructions. So for now, try distracting him when he becomes too demanding. You can also try to compromise, give and take. Sometimes these methods work with my kids. Your son is only 15 months old.
