WPF - DataGridCheckBoxColumn Issues

In WPF, how can I have a DataGridCheckBoxColumn that allows me to click the checkboxes without having to select the row first. It's weird that when I click the checkbox it selects the row rather than just clicking the checkbox I have this which seems to work, but it doesn't seem to update the value in the model when the checkbox is clicked. It only gets updated when I click the cell and click away. How can I fix it so that when I click the checkbox it updates the model?

<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Enabled" MinWidth="100" Width="100">
    <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Enabled, Mode=TwoWay}" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
        </DataTemplate>
    </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>

<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Enabled" MinWidth="100" Width="100">
    <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Enabled, Mode=TwoWay}" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
        </DataTemplate>
    </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>

Try and add this style to your data grid

<Style TargetType="DataGridCell">
     <Style.Triggers>
         <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
             <Setter Property="IsEditing" Value="True" />
         </Trigger>
     </Style.Triggers>
 </Style>

<Style TargetType="DataGridCell">
     <Style.Triggers>
         <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
             <Setter Property="IsEditing" Value="True" />
         </Trigger>
     </Style.Triggers>
 </Style>

Is there a way to apply that only to a specific column though? I wouldn't want that applied to text columns

See if it works at all first Then you can use the style with a key probably
