[quote=Anonymous]We all have an internal voice, and internal monologue, after a certain age (maybe 4-6?). Developing a silent inner voice is a milestone. (From Scholastic: "This ability to think in words is something adults do every day without even being aware of it. It is : the process we use to figure things out in our heads. Kindergartners' monologues are the precursor to this important skill. A strong inner voice is essential not only for cognitive functioning, but also to build social awareness.") Your son could just be self-aware of this development. All kids personalities change and they go through stages. My 5 year old acts VERY differently than she did at 1, 2, or 3. I suspect you are worrying needlessly absent any significant day-to-day mood issues with your child.[/quote]
