Using the gerund as a commandNiños ¡________!

One of the choices was "Comportándose" which was marked wrong. However, according to this lesson, wouldn't that also be correct:
Using the Spanish gerund as a command %252Fsearch%253Fs%253Dusing%252Bthe%252Bgerund%252Bas%252Ba%252Bcommand

Maybe I'm missing some reason why it doesn't work in this case? Thanks!

almost not understandable

Well, I guess if that's how they speak in Argentina, I won't be visiing there soon, if ever. Apart from the yeismo, the speaker articulated more through her nose than through the mouth (French-style) making her words almost impossible to understand. Good, clear Spanish is my aim.

Ya volví de Grecia: Shouldn't the English translation simply be I already returned?Ya volví de Grecia.I've already returned from Greece.
Doesn't I've already returned e.g. I have returned imply Pretérito Perfecto Compuesto, e.g Ya he vuelto
