Sounds like a normal 2 year old…you and your friend just need to stop being cranky old bitches
Toddlers are monsters from 2-3 they just are at some point they learn boundaries at that age it’s all about repetition with them too
She should take him out to parks and let him run Wild for a bit kids get worse cooped up inside all day
Lmao. You just described every 2 year old

All my 3 kids have no Idea what listening is good luck. And it’s not like I’ve tried everything already so… I’ve been told it’s something kids grow out of well my 6 year old never stops. My almost 5 year old never stops and my 3 year old never stops
He is 2 that’s what they call terrible 2s it’s completely normal. The grandmother needs to have patients with the child. The child is acting like a completely normal toddler

You can’t ask a group of people who have to be sensitive about the response they want to give because most folks will get offended but we all know the real answer is to recommend a whooping for him! Sorry not sorry! Tell her to get him with a wooden spoon from the kitchen and to have it on hand everytime she has to talk to him! Tyler perry was trying to to tell folks something in madeas big happy family but folks don’t like to listen and that’s why when these kid’s act up they go in the room and secretly record diss tracks and then they become teenagers and shoot up schools! She better nip that in the butt now

What 2 year old does everything they’re told? 
They’re 2!
He’s 2….what are you expecting?! He’s growing, learning, gaining some independence, wanting to learn and explore. What are you expecting from a 2 year old?! And if you mean “talking back” by saying everything is theirs or “mine” and saying no to everything well, all 4 of my kids went through this stage and so have all 3 of my grandkids.
Communication is really important. Instead of just going to timeout or slapping his hand stop and explain why it is wrong what he did. Im surprised so many people think that is what a toddler is like. My daughter was not disrespectful and she did not talk back to adults. I always communicated with her and explained things. I’ve always gotten compliments about how polite and well mannered she is.

He’s 2…. She just has to keep disciplining him. This is pretty normal. She just has to also find out what also gets him to listen for discipline. With my kids taking away toys/tablet time (they get an hour in Saturday and Sunday), chores etc my kids are older though.
Big things are, don’t yell. Be firm and consistent. A lot of the time kids from 1-3yrs old are acting out due to them trying to express something (they are tired, hungry, over stimulated, bored, thirsty). Redirecting them to a different activity, ignoring negative behaviors, praising them when you catch them being good are some things to do.
When my kids would hit I used to spank/ smack back but then they thought that was the right thing to do so it just made it worse. So for us what worked was getting down to their level and tell them we use nice hands, mouth feet… and that hurts. My youngest was a biter as 1/2yr old. We would tell him that hurts and use our mouth for kisses, using our words, and eating. Then we would get an ice pack and make him comfort whomever he bit. He was also sensory seeking (he has sensory processing disorder). Our OT said to offer him crunchy foods, chew tubes when we notice he’s trying to bite and to offer it regularly.
A big part of it is observing and seeing why they are doing wha they are doing it for. Is it attention seeking? Are they trying to tell you something?
Hes literally 2. It comes with the territory. I have an almost 2yo who says no, chucks huge tantrums and does everything he IS NOT supposed to do and does nothing he IS supposed to do. I literally nickname my son a little terror.

I have to 2 grandsons, born the same day 4 hours apart, they are almost 2, Yip I’m on repeat all the time that’s how they learn. Tell her to play blocks or cars go outside, have water day, be creative with him, he needs attention they are sponges at this age, teach him things TURN THE TV OFF.

He’s 2, how do you expect a 2 year old to act? And how can a 2 year old have a smart mouth? A time out chair, or time out in general isn’t really going to work. 2 year olds push buttons that’s how they learn, if you want to teach a 2 year old to listen or fallow directions you have to use patients, understanding, and redirection.

HE IS TWO!! 
He still has ALOT of learning to do.
And ya know, kids learn communication skills from those around them. If they hear a lot of screaming, the think that’s the proper way to communicate. If they’re talked to aggressively, again, they think that is how they should communicate. Sheesh.
Time out doesn’t always work. 9/10, you have to think of a more effective way to get through to the child other than instantly jumping to some type of punishment.
That’s just my take on it though.
Early Childhood teacher here and the mother of a rambunctious 2 and a half year old, This is quite common with this age. They love to test your limits at this age. The more you acknowledge the undesired behavior, the more he is going to use that behavior because that is what gets him attention. Instead of confronting him with this type of behavior, your friend should instead redirect the behavior to something that is more positive. There are better and more effective ways to discipline children than putting them in time out. Putting him in time out is not going to benefit either of them. Patience and understanding is what children need. Also, is it even your place to post this? No, it is not. Not by a long shot.

1.) He’s 2…which means he’s still learning.
2.) Be an example… he’s learned that behavior…2 yr olds mimic.
3.) Talk to him and show him at the same time what you want him to do, reminders and rewards for positive behavior are always needed.
3.) Hugs…lots of hugs
4.) Take some parenting classes.
5.) Pray & practice deep breathing!

Unpopular opinion but it’s time to begin teaching. Time outs are appropriate. Brief loss of privileges or treats. NOTICE I DID NOT SAY LONG TERM. Keep it basic, make a brief point that the behavior is not ok and move on

He’s 2 yrs old.He’ll be worse by the time he goes through the terrible 3’s…
The only thing I’d suggest to do though is get his hearing checked and also worm him.
I had one of my children at the Dr’s for behaviour and first thing he said was “when was he last wormed”…this can be a behaviour thing as well
I must have had a great 2 year old!He was the sweetest thing ever!
My 2 year old grabbed poop out of her toilet, stared straight into my soul, and smeared literal shit on the wall as I am repeatedly telling her no……and that wasn’t even the worst thing she did today.
The parents need to get a grip on the child not much a grandparent can di

And I want to know how many times adults are told not to do stuff and they turn around and do it??? Can’t expect a child to be perfect when adults are by far perfect.
I have a saying with mine… Accidents happen all the time we have to learn from them and try not to do it again. This has been golden… On top of at times I’ll purposely let them see me mess up so they can see I’m not perfect just bc I’m an adult.

He’s 2 years old. Maybe you shouldn’t be around this child honestly. His brain is barely developed and won’t be until he’s in his 20s. He’s learning right from wrong. But seriously just stop being around him for now since it’s a big issue to you who isn’t even his family

Maybe he has a diagnosis. Be careful with this.
2 year olds cannot regulate emotions nor have adequate impulse control. He is a child. Testing boundaries and needing consistency is normal. The repetition is what gets him to realize what he needs to do and how to act later on.

A two year old will not remember a rule from one day to the next. It’s like starting over each day and that’s completely normal at that age. As far as the smart mouth goes, most of that is probably from mom and dad.
