I received this in a newsletter from baby center. I love this website and love this post even more. I feel so much better about the communication problems that we have been having. Hope this will make another mommy's day.
"Does your toddler ignore you? He's not doing it on purpose; it takes time and practice to learn how to listen well. Here's how to help: Keep your requests simple and clear, get down on his level when you want his attention, and give him your ear when he wants to talk. It's worth the effort. Developing good listening skills will help your toddler learn more effectively, follow important instructions, get along better with you and other adults, and make friends."
Thanks, I did need that!
