[quote=Anonymous]That is pretty intense, OP. Not sure what to say. My DS is 6 and he is already very aware and observant of the differences in parenting styles between me and his dad. It scares me what he notices. Dad's family also is very subtle and passive agressive and when he spends time with them, DS feels the need to defend me. I know they don't flat out bad mouth me, their style is more subtle. But he picks up on it. The point is, even very young, kids do pick up on behaviors just some like your DS and mine are more aware that they did. Best thing to do is to ask him.how he feels when he behaves this way, and if he would like it if someone did it to.him and ask how he wants to be now and when he grows up. It might open up his thinking to the fact that this is NOT how he wants to be, even if it solicits a reaction from.uou. typed on phone. Forgive errors. [/quote]
