[quote=Anonymous]I think it's possible if you are talking about an adult child but otherwise no, I don't think a kid can "get' their parent on the emotional level. I do think that kids can and do empathize in a way that reflects back what they have witnessed you as a parent do or others in reaction to certain situations but I don't think this means they truly get it. Kids have much more simplistic thinking. And in the OPs case, I would suggest she be wary. To me, that her son reacted the way he did is more out of anxiety and fear that concern or compassion for her as a person but more for his own self (which of course is appropriate at his age). In a child's mind, they can easily think surgery = hospital = serious illness or death. [/quote]
