Mr W is a very demanding little kid. if I don't give him my laptop, he does his "warface" and lets me have it verbally.
LOL.
He knows what the mousepad is for, but just does not have the feel to use it so he just gets me to do it.
I can't understand what he wants most of the time, so we both just end up frustrated. He would really much rather drive and given his "cost/value" approach to things - if he is not getting out of it what he thinks he should, he just goes onto something else.
He does touch the screen a lot and he learns after just one example, and I think if we could get him started with that then we could move to a wireless monitor/keyboard/mouse a few months later.
He is very careful if we tell him and is a cautious, thoughtful kid anyway. He has not broken anything around the house ever and he only bangs stuff that he knows is safe to bang. He knows how to turn all his toys off and on already.
I'd like to just let him explore on his own.
As for interaction, we cannot leave him along for very long before he comes looking for us. The level of interaction he demands is so high he is the only kid his sitter has and she has said she cannot handle us having another kid like him. (She said she would quit, even though she loves him to death. ) So, a little more time to himself would be good for everyone.
