When I first got my 2.5 y/o, she was 18 mos and wouldn't look at me either. Don't think it is required at home. My kids LOOKED at me when I got on to them. For the first two months, I picked her up and held her in front of me (not cuddled up), eye to eye when I got on to her. She now automatically looks at me when I get on to her.
