[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi. I have a son who just turned 7 and every birthday since 4 he has had trouble adjusting to his " new" age. This year he claims he doesn't want to be 7 and wants to stay 6 forever. It's been a month since his birthday. He says he doesn't want to grow up and that's why he hates birthdays. I really don't know what to do to make him understand it's a normal part of life and he just needs to deal with it. Has anyone else had this issue and if so, any tips???[/quote] my kids were like this too.... and they generally got over it by turning their new age and realizing it wasn't any different from their old age. This isn't a "problem" that needs to be fixed... life itself will dictate that they age up every year. There is nothing to do about it.[/quote]
