After the baby is two years old, they can already speak, run, and jump. Many babies are very wild at this time. But some parents find that their babies don't like to interact with others, and when talking to them, the babies don't even talk to their family members. Is this normal? What should a 2-year-old baby do if they ignore others? How should we deal with the rebellion of a 2-year-old baby?
What should I do if a 2-year-old baby ignores others
Check if the baby can hear sounds. If the baby can hear, ask the child to bring a newspaper and ask where the father is. The child will point their finger at the father. If the child can do these things, even if they can't speak, they can still hear, so there's no problem.
Such a big baby belongs to the stage of language development and can understand, but when asked to speak at once, he cannot explain clearly. If the baby is normal in all aspects, then they can hear but don't want to answer! So moms should talk to him more often, and be careful to squat down and look at him at the same level when speaking, giving him the impression that you respect him. Over time, he will give you the same answer.
Actually, moms don't have to worry at all. Chat with him more, say some easy to understand words, and let him learn from you. Also, don't call him when he's focused on playing, it will interrupt his thinking and affect his concentration! Such a young child has very limited ability to accept things, and he can only do one thing at a time. He doesn't have the heart to care about what is at hand!
How to deal with a 2-year-old baby's rebellion
1. Understand the baby's feelings. Don't put yourself in opposition to your baby, but learn to stand in their shoes and empathize with their feelings with your heart.
2. Identify the psychological reasons for resistance. Understanding does not mean not establishing rules, but when setting rules for babies, do not forcefully enforce those rules that they have always resisted. Instead, identify the reasons for the baby's resistance and find ways to solve them.
3. Find an outlet for emotions. Many times, babies intentionally do things that adults do not allow, in order to vent negative emotions or feelings of unease.
4. Looking for good performance from the baby. Praise can indirectly help babies understand right from wrong, pay attention to their good behavior, and give timely praise.
5. Give the baby a certain degree of autonomy. Since the baby is in a rebellious period, some things should not be strictly regulated, but rather allowed to enjoy democratic rights conditionally.
6. Not constrained everywhere. A baby is just a baby, you can't use your standards to constrain him everywhere. It's best to have some control over his behavior.
A two-year-old baby who ignores others may have hearing problems, so parents must take the baby to have their hearing checked. After ruling out hearing problems, it may be the rebellious period of the baby. Parents can try to talk more with the baby and not adopt a tough attitude towards them just because of their rebellious behavior.
