2years old boys doesnt nod his head for 'yes' and shake his head for'no'

hi,

Has anybody have the same problem with his toddler? My 27th old boy doesnt want to nod his head to point he wants something and shake it to say 'No'. I desperately try to teach him to do it when he asks for things but he's very stubborn. He still talks in his own language but usually we know what he wants because he points his finger to things or pulls our hand to show us sth, or brings staff to us - but I have never seen him using his head for saying 'yes' or 'no'. When I try to encourage him to do it he just gets angry as he's very strong willed and stubborn so it's rather difficult to force him to something.

Can anybody help?

Anna
