[quote=Anonymous]My 5 year old hasn’t said this but he does say things like “you need to go to time out!” Or “I don’t like the way you’re behaving! Apologize right now!” Etc to me and my husband when he’s angry. I think this is totally normal. They’re trying to feel some control over the situation, don’t know how to manage their frustration and so think of the worst threat they can when their parents say or do something they don’t like. I think a good response would be “I know you’re really upset right now and if you want to talk to ____about your feelings, you are welcome to do that.”[/quote]
