do they touch it went you say that? are they nosey? my kids are nosey and curious so they will really still touch it... but that was when they were just five years old. when they were around 7 years old they will follow when i say dont touch this but with a lot of WHYS and WHAT IFS.... but they do follow. how about you? are your children nosey and curious?

Well I have come to the conclusion that my kids have hearing problems. LOL! No matter what I say they don't listen and still touch and do the very opposite of what I tell them to do. It is very frustrating at times. But they are not bad kids, it just seems like they never listen.

My daughter will be 2 in July and everytime we tell her not to touch she will do it anyway. She is at that age where she is testing us. I do have to laugh at some of the things she does. She is very smart and I don't mind her exploring her world but I just don't want her to get hurt doing it.

yes that age is the age where you have to see what she is doing every second. she might put something inside her mouth or fall down from the chair. it is indeed hard work. thanks for the response

When my son was little he had to be told not to touch but he asked why and when an how when he could barely walk so after awhile I did let him touch the things that were not breakable as he was one little scientist in the maiking an now he is a computer programmer. If children aren't curious then there is something wrong with them for sure as that is how they learn,

My daughter's just at the stage now where if I tell her not to touch something she will make sure that she does touch it. She does the opposite to what I say, just to see my reaction. I've double-bluffed her a few times by telling her to do the opposite of what I want her to do, (in the hope that she'll do what I want her to do) and sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn't! Guess I have to learn not to react, or to make my reactions less amusing to her!
