[quote=Anonymous]My mother is just so naturally negative that she thinks of the worst possible outcomes, motivations, reasons, etc for everything. I know it's not me-specific, but it is so annoying and I feel like it makes every interaction a fight, because I just cannot take it after awhile. DD was slow to crawl (that means she's dyslexic!). DD had a cold 3 days before we were supposed to go on vacation (she'll probably get a fever tomorrow and then you'll have to cancel the trip!). DD doesn't know all of her letters at 2.5 (she'll be a late reader! you knew all your letters! what are you doing to fix this!). DD runs to DH and/or I when we get home (I tried to read to her but she's just not interested in reading!). DS hurt his leg as an infant pretty badly -- but is fine now (you'll never know later on when he has problems if this is why!). DD was scared of the pool last summer (she'll never learn to swim!). DD loves the pool this summer (she's going to drown since she doesn't understand the danger!). DD will be starting pre-k full time in August (full time? she'll probably hate school now! you started part-time and loved it!). Even DD is extremely verbal for her age (she'll develop slower in other areas because she's so fixated on learning new vocabulary!). [/quote]
