Question

How can i get my 5 yrs old to hear me?

Answer 1

Not sure what you mean by this question. In general, though, since they are only five, you must put everything in terms of things they will understand. Try to talk with them at their own level. Also, do talk with them. If you are always telling them things, but never listening, they are bound to be discouraged.

It can be difficult. Some people just work better with children than others. Much of it is simply instinctive. Be patient, though!

Answer 2

Dont shout at him.

Don't keep repeating things.

If he has to listen to find out what you are saying, he eventually will.

Answer 3

well there's 2 things you can do.one reward her saying things like.i know you hear me sweetie,and if you do what i tell you then we can go to ..........!the second thing you can do is encourage.saying stuff to your (adult living with u like)hey aren't we going to................today.but i know that only people who listen to their moms can go. that's what i do c'mon

Answer 4

I have the same problem......my son is 4 1/2.  Usually, I have to say things repeatedly before he hears me unless it is something he wants to hear. lol :)  But, what I find works sometimes is when I kneel down to his level and look him in the eyes to talk to him. He seems to respond better when we are at eye level.
