[quote=Anonymous]My 5 year old was definitely being kind of annoying to his older cousins on vacation the other week but since they’re a bit older they were charitable about it. I made sure to step in and tell my 5 year old to leave them alone for a bit if I saw it getting out of hand. I also have an 8 year old, and he and my 5 year old annoy each other all the time and tell each other that. I probably hear “stop it X you’re annoying me” from my 5 year old more than my 8 year old actually. I let them hash it out as I figure it’s good to learn these things in a “safe” setting at home. I have never observed either of my kids have trouble reading cues from their same age peers in group settings; not have I ever heard teachers say they have trouble with this. That would concern me more than the older cousin scenario. Kids just get excited in those situations and need us to help them regulate their behavior.[/quote]
