[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think being a pleaser is positive! Where are you getting the opposite? Especially for tweens![/quote] Yeah, it's not. I'm starting to see signs of this in my 10yo, and it concerns me. She needs to trust her own judgment, and not do things based on other people's expectations.[/quote] Exactly my 10 yo too. Of course it worked for her as a young child -- people raved about how "good" of a kid she was, how giving, how kind, how understanding of others. Never got in trouble at school and teachers loved her. Of course, all that praise just taught her she should continue to be this way, and she doesn't quite understand when I talk about standing up for herself and doing things for herself, not just what others want.[/quote]
