Do all kids coming up for 2 all pretend to cry/give it the puppy dog eyes and wobbly lip when they want something/don’t want to do something?
Just checking!

Mine does. His latest thing is pretending to fall over!

Lol. Yes, I think they do. I was told to be pleased they’re smart enough to manipulate. My teen still gives me puppy dog eyes, although it’s not cute anymore.

Yes. The smart ones are always the worst. Also watch out for fabulous lies..... Wink

Mine only started this at 3 when he went to nursery complete with opening one eye to look and see if he's getting a reaction, he also began copying his brothers screaming tantrums, occasionally stopping taking a breath looking at me and grinning before screaming again.

It makes me insanely mad because he only does it in public or when we have guests
