[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really hard to tell from your question, but one data point - I know a kid like this, and from my perspective, she’s pretty emotionally coddled. I’m all for giving kids space to express and process their emotions and to validate them, but ANY thing this kid feels is taken as the Number 1 Priority in the moment. She’s an only child, four years old, and if she’s sad about something, both parents drop everything and are there soothing and consoling her and talking to her and hugging her, and it’s like, dude, she dropped a cracker. She’ll live. She’s also a bit anxious, and I think her parents inadvertently reinforce it by being overly accommodating. If she’s “too scared” to do something, then they just cancel the whole thing. No idea if it’s a similar situation with you, but two things to look out for. [/quote] Cool story bro[/quote]
