[quote=Anonymous]First of all, you may have a very different child six months from now. What is going on this summer? Is the child in camp? What activities is he engaged in? Are friends on the scene or off in other camps and not accessible? Are there changes in the home right now, or parents working longer hours, or sibling ill? Any identifiable source of stress? Can you make time for one on one talking, a long walk with discussion of how he is feeling, thinking. No right or wrong or criticism, just talking. Also the Gesell institute books about "Your six year old" are good. Kids around this age tend to think the whole world is against them. http://www.amazon.com/Your-Six-Year-Old-Louise-Bates-Ames/dp/0440506743/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1437817604&sr=1-1&keywords=your+six+year+old+loving+and+defiant&pebp=1437817592648&perid=176T7RRMAHZCN78E6WNX [/quote]
