Toddler always wants to get behind the camera to see the pictures instead of being in front


I love taking photos and home videos of my family, particularly of my toddler son. Up until a few months ago (23 months now), he would freely let me take photos and videos and would even seem to enjoy coming right up to the lens for close ups.He also happens to really love watching these same photos and videos. We can't turn the PC monitor on because he is obsessed with watching the same and will have mini meltdowns when he doesn't get to. Same goes for phones by the way because it's the same content he's after.He also along the way discovered that the rear or the camera is capable of displaying the same, so now whenever I bring out the camera he immediately has to get behind the camera and starts pressing the d-pad because he knows that's how I advance through the content.I indulge him in this from time to time but he never gets bored of it so in turn never lets me photograph or take video of him anymore. I'll also mention that we have had bunches of 4x6 photo prints made which we freely let him look through.I'm not sure if this is temporary or not. I also don't think it's necessarily unhealthy or anything, but in practicality I can't take much new content because of it. Anyone have a suggestion? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2lMd9Qh
