2 year olds have brains the size of monkeys, and remember that monkeys will mimic whatever you do. Someone is teaching her this bad behavior, and she keeps doing it because she is getting a reaction. Training a 2 year old to do anything takes a tremendous amount of patience, but the rewards are amazing when you see them responding in a positive way, and maturing. As the big sister, you are the most important person in this little girl's life, and will always be. You are her guardian angel on earth, and will teach her all the most important lessons in life. I'm sure God hand picked her to be your little Sister! : )
Most important, you don't want to say she is "bad". She's not...she's just a two year old.
I promise you she will grow out of this very soon. You sound like a wonderful big Sister! I'm proud of you for asking this question, because you care about your little Sister so much. She is so lucky to have you!
Big hug,
-Ginger

First of all, where did she learn this stuff?
See, children don't just one day create curse words and use the middle finger - it is a learned thing. So someone did these things in front of her, showing her how to do them, as well as when to do them. So that person/people need to be smacked upside the head.
Second of all, someone "encouraged" this behavior from her by laughing at it, or getting her to do it again and again. So again, some beatings need to be done on some older beings for that.
Your mom needs to break her of this stuff. This will be a tough job, and it will take a group effort. No swearing in front of her, no using the finger, and do not laugh at the incidents when they happen. The more attention/reaction one gives them, the more appealing they will be to her. No reaction is the best reaction. Making little of the actions is the best way to go. When she does these things, ignore her. Don't yell at her, don't spank her, and definitely don't give her a laugh. If she is speaking to you, ignore her until she speaks to you properly. If she hits, simply place her into her room and shut the door. She comes out? Put her back in. Keep it up - it will be a huge battle, but she will eventually tire of fighting, and will stay in her room. When she calms down, your mom should go into her room and sit down with her. She should then explain in a calm voice that it is not right to act in that manner, and that no one should speak to another in that way. But the trick is to lead by example. Show her how to communicate with another. Don't swear, and don't use gestures. When she sees how to properly do it, and realizes that no one will pay attention to her when she does do it, she will change. But it will take a lot of time, patience, and consistancy from EVERYONE around her.

Your family needs to establish clear rules of behavior, by setting limits to your little sister and enforcing them consistently. Some of these limits need to be: no swearing, no hitting, no yelling. There need to be appropriate consequences that don't involve hurting or shaming your sister. For example, the use of a time-out, or removal of a favorite toy for a specified period of time. You can also encourage positive behavior by recognizing and praising her when she behaves well, for example, if she uses polite words to express frustration rather than swearing or hitting. Make sure that everyone in the family is also modeling appropriate behavior for her to emulate.
It is important to work with her now so that these problem behaviors don't escalate into more aggression as she grows older. You may want to ask her pediatrician if she continues to exhibit a lot of aggression, even after you try implementing some of these changes. There are also great books on the subject of child cooperation in general. Two books I found particularly helpful are listed below.
Good luck.

Your little sister is pretty cleaver. She knows that it gets you angry or upset when she swears and thats why she does it. If you ignore her it will stop. (she will probably find something else to get your riled about) I'm sure you also tried to rule the roost when you were two, it's perfectly normal.
The best thing to do is be consistent with discipline, time out could be in her room where she is away from everyone or made to sit in a corner facing the corner.
I have two grown children and helped raise many other children so I know what two years olds are capable of doing.

shop the diaper sparkling and dry. that's much greater substantial if the rash has already started. substitute the diaper as regularly by using fact the toddler wets or dirties it. do no longer use toddler wipes in case you're dealing with diaper rash. A delicate wash fabric with heat water must be your decision for cleansing the toddler. If the diaper were grimy you need to use a sprint consumer-friendly cleansing soap which you mostly use for the toddler. sure, there are issues to do to boot conserving the toddler dry and sparkling whilst diaper rash has appeared to hardship you and the toddler. One such element is a cream it somewhat is in specific made to handle diaper rash. guarantee that the cream you have chose is composed of zinc oxide. This element will help to place a layer between a moist diaper and the toddler's delicate epidermis. i don't comprehend the place you reside yet interior the U. S. they sell a produst pronounced as Boudreaux’s Butt Paste. It workes wonders. If this product isn't avaliable the place you reside then ask on the pharamacy what's the proper dialer rash cream. returned do no longer use toddler wipes to scrub him/her. additionally, some toddler tylonol or motirn will help with the discomfort.

I think no matter what you do, toddlers will hear a bad word and imitate it. However, if your sister uses these words at "the perfect time" she's only following the example of those around her. Babies learn language and social skills by imitating others. It's simple: it you don't want her to swear, don't swear around her. This doesn't make her spoiled, and spanking isn't going to help this situation a bit.

Babies definitely imitate people. that's how they learn. My son repeats a lot of things now-he's 13 months old! i said, "hey" and he said it back! So you and your parents just need to watch what you say around her, and tell her no firmly when she does that. Say that's not nice too. You have to stick with it, or she won't take you seriously. Time out chair too maybe? Not sure if it would work at that age.
goodluck!

1st of all, you guys hv to cooperate as a family - no cursing & swearing in front of kids. i think your baby sis really needs a spanking. i think in western cultures, most parents dont spank their kids but spare the rod & spoil the child. of course, you hv to evaulate the situation, spanking dont solve the problem but it helps. try to have a serious talk with her, tell her the next time she curse & point the middle finger, she'll get a spanking. & you have to mean it - ie you have to really spank her hard to get the message across. if you dont, then she knows you dont mean it. punish her whenever she curse & point - let her know it's enough.

2 year olds don't do this stuff out of thin air. She witnessed this behavior and heard those words from someone! Stop anyone and everyone from saying and doing those things around her. When she does do those things ignore her and don't react to it as much as possible. 2 year olds emulate what they see, so behave around her as you want her to behave.
