Are We Supposed to Be at the Whys Already?

Posted on February 14, 2008 - Filed Under Kids |

Yesterday, no matter what anyone did, be it Dante throwing something on the floor or me yawning, Dorian asked, “¿Porque?” (why) He would ask “Why yawn? Why is this on the floor? Why? But Why?”

I was pretty sure I had another year before this stage kicked in! Isn´t two for being a brat and 3 is when you start questioning the world´s existence? And how on earth do you explain the laws of gravity to a two year old who asks why his juice falls when he tips the glass over? :S So far he seems fairly satisfied with my answers . . . but I seriously doubt he understands all of what I´m saying . . . but then, I thought the whys started at 3, so what do I know!

    He’s learning, learning, learning! You will be surprised what he’s retaining, too. If you keep the answers short and sweet, they understand A LOT. All I can say is, Embrace It! If you don’t, it’ll drive you CRAZY!!
