why a 2 year old kids do not listen to anything and makes fuss of everything?

Answer 1

Because they are only 2

Answer 2

Isn't it frustrating?? Actually it's part of his/her growing up. At 2 years old, children are starting to learn independence and sometimes that comes out in yucky ways (that's why they're sometimes called the terrible two's).

There are a few things you can do to help:

Set reasonable boundaries and stick to them. Example if you don't want your child opening and closing the fridge 10 times. Make it clear, give them a warning and then deal with it (slap on hand, time out in chair-whatever you choose) Be consistent. Two year olds need to know that they'll get caught everytime, not just sometimes.

Be clear about what you will and will not accept. Don't allow hitting, kicking, spitting or biting (or whatever else might be coming up). If you child hits say something like "Hitting is bad because it hurts people. You may not hit. Because you hit you need to sit in the time out chair for 2 minutes." Keep the chair (or whatever you use) near you and set a timer so they know they can get up when the timer bings. Swift and healthy consequences are better than your anger.

Don't give too many choices. Example: When he/she's getting dressed in the morning, take out 2 shirts and say "Would you like to wear the red one or the blue one today?" Don't allow them to choose from 10 different options. They can't yet do that well.

Make sure that they have opportunity to develop new skills in a safe environment. If they take an interest in cooking, set up a situation where they can help you stir in a bowl or tear the lettuce for a salad. When my kids discovered peeling carrots, we had carrot peels in our salad for months (after throwing away the dirty outside peels).

Relax and remember that accidents will happen, cut hair grows back, milk spills can be cleaned up, dirt in mouth doesn't usually make you sick!

Remember it's a stage. Your child will become more accomodating and easy again in a year or two. Try to relax and enjoy the growing independence and development of this amazing and unique child that you have the blessing of having in your life, even though it's not always easy.

Answer 3

This question concerns me a bit because it seems that you are comparing this baby's mentality to your own or at best that of a much older child. His brain is still developing and growing and has many many more years until it's fully developed (I belive the human brain stops developing in our 20's!!!).
You being the "older" person need to understand that you can't expect this baby to act like anything other than a baby. I hope that in your fustration you don't get rough or mean with him. Babies this young don't understand right and wrong as older people do. If he wants something he can't have give him something else to distract him. Punishment won't work because he can't connect the punishment as being a concequence for his actions. Instead use redirection meaning offer him better options. Also babies that age can't communicate as well and as clearly as you and I cantherefore be aptient with him because that is fustrating for them specialy when you don't understand what they want. Patiently try to figure out what he needs. And like you and me babies have bad days too and may be a bit grouchy. Understand that he is only 2 and that he is incapeable of acting any other way but his age.

same reason why a teenager doesnt listen to anything and makes a fuss of everything...lol or your spouse it goes in one ear out the other ear.they only want to hear what they want and nothing more.i guess thats all about being human cause we all do that at one point or another.what i do to my daughter when she does that is threaten her if she starts her screaming and whinning ill pop her little butt and that usually makes her calm down.but the listening thing i dont know how to get my 3 yr old to listen to unless i repeat myself over and over.but good luck with that hun cause i havent figuar that out myself....lol

Answer 5

Simply because they are 2. Its the age of independence. Children want to test their boundries and see how far they can drive mom and dad crazy. its your job as a parent to hold your ground and teach children at a young age what is good behavior and bad behavior. Its a stage and all a part of growing up. Catching the behavior and adjusting it at a young age will prevent the behavior from getting worse.

Answer 6

at two they want to do everything they like being a BIG KID but they are two so they just simply cant do everything. Dont you get frustrated when you cant open a jar of pickles. well try doing it 30,000 times a day then you'll know why a 2 year gets fussy

Answer 7

Because they are two. They don't really understand what is going on around them. Children have to be taught everything, including to listen to someone. You have to reward good behavior as much as you scold bad behavior.

Answer 8

All toddlers are self-centered.
In their minds they are all that matters, they "know" what's best, they don't listen to reason.
To them, we are not reasonable.
To them, we are not listening.
To them, we make a fuss of everything.

Meet him/her halfway or 50/50, and you will have a happier toddler.

Answer 9

Coz they're made to challenge us! haha. They are finding themselves and pushing your boundries, so start the way you mean to go on and stick with your boundries everytime. Good luck, no one said it was a easy job - your doing fine!!

Answer 10

Because they are 2, and here's a newsflash, it get's worse when they are 3!
