[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks all. This is OP. I agree I was being unfair, fwiw. But she cries even when there’s no unfairness, that was just the most recent example. I just wanted to know that it is in the range of normal, as I don’t remember being so emotional at that age. SO it’s good to hear that it’s normal. We’ll just accept it as part of who she is.[/quote] While I agree it in the range of normal. I do think you want to help her express her feelings in a health way and develop coping mechanisms for her to manage her strong feelings. I think my kid who similarly lacks superior emotional control has a touch of anxiety. Her proclivity to cry shouldn't be ignored entirely as she'll do better in life if she develops skills to handle her strong emotions. You should be helping her with that through the tween and teen years. How do you normally react when she cries? Does she feel "heard" when she expresses her feelings?[/quote]
