A two-years-old child does not listen to you?
Have you explained to him many times that you can't go up to the stove and play with the buttons, and he still stubbornly uses every uncontrolled minute to play with the mysterious buttons of the stove?
Yes, this is natural for their stage of development, they have not yet learned to control impulses and build cause-and-effect relationships.
This is the main reason for the dissatisfaction of parents and complaints “I don’t believe in anything.”
In fact, they listen to you very well, they know the rules well, it's just that they often find it difficult to follow the rules, due to poor control over impulses, and therefore the use of punishment methods does not make practical sense. Without leaving them even for two minutes alone, the so-called. time-out.
Then how to "talk" with the baby?
We will talk about this next Monday, in the next post.
