Re: Help with both children

The most likely reason the positive behaviour only lasts a day is because your giving up too soon. Keep at the same responses for at least a month and if he gets worse for a while take it as a sign that he is testing you out to see if he can make you change tactics and once he's convinced he can't and will get the same reaction every time he'll stop testing.

Re: Help with both children

Don't force the younger child to talk. When he goes to play school, he will interact with other kids of his age & start talking. My son was 24 months old when I send him to play school & he used to say 5 words. Within a month of playschool he started speaking new words everyday. These days i have a tough time making him talk !!
