• Your daughter starts to imitate the behavior of women,
whereas your son does what men do. But the child does not
always imitate the same sex; this is normal so do not be surprised
if your son tries to imitate women or your daughter tries to
imitate men.
• Your toddler will begin to be aware when things do not make

genitals. Just as they used to play with their fingers and toes

• The child still wants all attention to be focused on him and him
alone.
• He may develop some feelings and behaviors such as using
violence, biting, stubbornness, jealousy, anger and fear of certain
things.
• He will show signs of love towards his parents and the people
whom he loves, and he will always call them by their names.
• Your 21-­‐month-­‐old child may be attracted to the idea of tidying
and organizing, helping with housework, using shelves for toys,
and so on. He may be able to dress himself, wash and dry his
hands, and brush his teeth with a little help.
• Your child can take care of some of his affairs himself; this
indicates that the child is growing up and feeling safe and secure.
Respect his inclinations, interests and preferences and try to
compromise on some minor mistakes that he may make. Do not
criticize all his behavior; rather offer clearer advice and explain to
him that some things – such as behavior that could expose him to
