Generally, babies can start babbling and learning to speak around 4 months after birth. After the baby turns one year old, their speech becomes increasingly fluent and clear. However, 2-year-old babies have learned to speak and become more prone to lying, which worries many mothers. After all, a 3-year-old baby is 80 years old. So what should 2-year-old babies do if they love to lie?
1. Many babies at this age are unable to distinguish between imagination and reality, and sometimes they express their imagination. At this point, mothers should listen to the stories their babies imagine and discuss the birds or dogs in the stories with them. In this process, not only does it encourage babies to express their ideas, but it also guides their imagination.
2. Many babies often satisfy their needs through imagination when their wishes cannot be fulfilled. At this point, mothers should not scold babies for lying, but patiently ask them for their most genuine thoughts. If their wishes are unattainable, they should also patiently comfort them. This not only protects the babies' self-esteem but also teaches them the truth.
3. Babies have a strong ability to imitate, and may be influenced by adults around them to say things that do not match their words and actions. If mothers notice that their babies have imitated the bad side of adults, they should take a corrective attitude and let their babies know that this is not right, which can set an example for them.
