Don't shriek in other people's face!

Weekend was filled with KENDURI! People getting engaged and married. Bina masjid, alhamdulillah. May they have the best of marriage, filled with joy and happiness for the rest of their lives.

Nowadays, I'm very hesitant to bring Irfan to kenduri, yet it doesn't feel right to go without him. He's really into the 'terrible two' stage, and this boy is OVER FRIENDLY too with people. He will just barge into other kid's activities, and he usually does it in a very rough way. He shrieks at them, oh yes! That's his way of saying "Hello, can I join in?" or "Hello sweetie pie, can we be friends?". But kids, usually girls, would be scared looking at this good looking Malay version of Denise the Menace screaming in their faces. Who wouldn't, kan Eesya kan?

Last time he used to shove other kids roughly, that's how he played with them. After countless of times telling him "No pushing, no shoving, that's verrrrryyy bad, no one wants to play with you nanti", we can see some improvement now. Before we go anywhere with kids now, we would ask him "Later you going to see Arees (or anyone else for that matter) so remember. DON'T???" and he would reply "DON'T PUSH! DON'T TOYAKKK!. SAKIIIT!" Hiks. Good! Tapi kadang-kala masih terbabas.

So I guess now we should start advising him on the shrieking-in-your-face behaviour, no kids would wanna befriend him if he keeps on doing that. I hope to see some improvement soon!

Raising a kid ain't easy after all, is it?
