[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 18 months old first time does the pointing over the past weekend, and he was pointing at the geese swimming in the lake a couple times. Even though he does not look at me while/after he is pointing, that is considered pointing, right? [/quote] He has to look back at you for it to be considered joint attention pointing.[/quote] NP. For typically developing toddlers around this age, about what fraction of the time that they point at something they find interesting do they actually look back at you? My 19-month-old looks at us occasionally, but she's much more likely to just point and say "Doggie" or whatever excitedly, without making sure we're looking at it too. Do most toddlers look back at their parents faces most or all of the time? [/quote]
