[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 7yo DD's teacher said that she has made some comments at school, and she'd like me to follow up at home. I am doing that, but would also like DCUM's take on whether DD's meanness is out of the norm? Examples They draw or write about what they plan to do on the weekend. DD told her tablemate, who had drawn a blob, that her drawing "isn't that cool." .... [/quote] She's not out of the norm, but in order to develop empathy and kindness she needs help in being able to imagine the perspective of others. How about watching Bambi with her - a favorite movie that deals with this subject. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8poo79 Here's a memory from that movie that helped me a long time ago. https://tinyurl.com/4pay8d86his bit of wisdom [/quote] Here are some more ideas about helping children of her age develop empathy. https://tinyurl.com/y2atm8wb[/quote]
