Babies at this age are incapable of understanding rules.
They only respond to their feelings of hunger, tiredness etc

Babies are incapable of ‘bad’ and ‘good’ behaviour they are act on their instinct.
They are unaware of the world around them.
By the age of six months, they understand displeasure.
ONE TO TWO YEARS
Children in this age group are able to learn about behaviour through examples. At around the age of two years your child will enjoy saying the word “no”
Your child must learn they cannot get your attention while you’re doing a job unless they are helping you. This will take time for the child to learn this.

TWO TO THREE YEARS
A child of this age is more likely to understand more about what is acceptable behaviour. They are more willing to help you with jobs.
This is when the famous terrible twos start, and you could be facing your first tantrums. The tantrum will alarm your child as much as you. How you react to these tantrums will determine how often these will happen.
