We had to start tellin...LOL- Been there, done that! We had to start telling him simply why he can't do something. So with the power chords instead of no we started saying "Owie" or however you spell it. When he'd go to the garbage, which he's still having problems with, we'd say "ucky." It's funny how much he understands- he even uses the correct facial expressions when he says them and uses them in other appropriate contexts. <br />Whatever you do, don't laugh. Ryan used to smile when he'd do something like hit and that little grin inveribly would make me giggle, and then he stopped taking me seriously. It took a good 2 months for him to listen to me again. Now he does well, but I have learned to save the giggling for later!!!<br />Enjoy all this time with your little one!~Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02106499303233522971noreply@blogger.com
