Child

Even though you may not notice, I’m learning so much from watching you! What you do and say are so interesting to me, and I’ll try to do and say the same things. No one’s perfect, so don’t feel bad if I repeat a “bad word” that you said in front of me – it happens! Just try not to overreact or give me more attention for repeating undesired behaviors – if I think you’re amused or giving me attention when I do this, I’ll probably just do it again. Continue modeling what you want me to say and do stay calm and remember – I learn from everything I see, hear, and experience.
