Query regarding 4yr old child
My 4yr old son says he doesnt want to grow up.. he refuses to give up breastfeeding as well. He often acts like baby and babytalks.
At first i was not concerned but it strikes me when he refuses to hold a pencil, even do colouring,or make friends - saying he doesnt wantvto grow up and be a big boy...
Is it normal for a 4yr old to act like this?
We are only 2 of us at home, husband stays away for work and come on weekends. He doesnt go to school and has online classes die to the pandemic...

Hello. Even if i say there is no problem per se do consult a child psychiatrist or a pediatric doctor. It is certainly not totally normal for these symptoms to happen. Do rule out any other issue.
