My baby keeps on crying and lying down when we never let him do what he wants. He's just 2 yrs old nxt2 month. Is he spoiled then or is it normal for kids that age?

Absolutely normal for a 2-year-old to throw a tantrum. My little girl does it all the time, and she's 20 months old. Developmentally at 2 years old, they only know around 50 words or so. So if they're frustrated and don't know how to express it, they resort to crying. I just remember not to reinforce this behavior. If my daughter's crying because I told her no, then I don't go over to her and baby her. I only go to her if she's crying because she hurt herself. So she knows the difference between crying from a tantrum and crying from physical pain. But I think she's become smart enough to fake cry from pain - she'll pretend to fall, then cry, then look over to me or her dad. Hahahahahahah. Mga bata talaga!
