Toddler pouts at EVERY SINGLE NO.


Our 2 and a half year old is a very sensitive child. He is my wife’s son, and I adopted him recently. He very active and very emotional. Every single time we say no to him, about anything, no to a cookie, no don’t touch that, no we can’t go here, etc etc, he stops, hangs his head and pouts. And it’s for everything, to the point where it becomes a production out an about, sometimes we’re not even sure why he’s pouting but he’ll stop mid-walk while we’re at park and hang his head and not want to move. We’ll give him ultimatums which he’ll then snap out of briefly, before hanging his head again in (albeit sometimes adorable) sadness. Is this something we should just ignore? It’s becoming not cute anymore. Should we address it at this age or just ignore him when he does it. Disciplining him is tough, especially since we’re not sure if he gets why were disciplining him. All he hears is “no”. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2AByUJ5
