[quote=Anonymous]DS 5.5 gets extremely hangry. He is normally a sweet kid but when he is hangry he gets very negative, lies and says negative/nonsensical things like "my kindergarten teacher is mean to everyone", "you never let me drink water", and can't think straight and pretends he doesn't know what 1+1 equals, for example. After he eats he goes back to normal and will acknowledge that his kindergarten teacher is actually nice to everyone. This happens almost every time he is hungry. We do not totally empathize because both DH and I never, ever, got hangry as children, and neither do we as adults. Hunger simply doesn't affect our mood at all, and even if we don't eat an entire day or two we are still pretty cheerful. Is being hangry a condition that one would outgrow? Or is it a lifelong experience that he will need to learn to manage?[/quote]
