Yeah our son absolutely does things on his terms and it's a little tedious and frustrating at times but now that we've seen what happens when something clicks in that little noggin of his, it's a remarkable thing! I'm trying to get better at taking a breath when he's doing something that is wrong or intentionally not what I asked him because usually in a couple weeks he does it well and without issue. One of the small things that was a bit of a struggle and battle for him was folding socks lol. For ankle socks, we typically take the pair and fold them in on each other so it becomes a ball. He had quite a battle trying to figure that out! An hour was spent doing it one day with lots of tears and frustration. We folded clothes two weeks later and he was determined to do it and got it with some guidance and was so proud of himself he ran over and showed mum lol.
With letters he’s getting better at them but not as quickly as my wife wants. She’s a little stressed about things like that since he’s our only child and she wants him to succeed but I try to be patient and let him do things when he’s ready. We did letters tonight and he got 6 of them from random parts of the alphabet so that was good. He can perfectly go from A to Z in a row but that’s because of the song hahaha
Do you remember being a child and KNOWING for SURE that you knew better than those outdated frumpy adults? XD
Aaaahhhhhhhh XD
