[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was that child. I'm much, much better now (at 38!) but still tear up easily over embarrassments, funny things, sad things, etc. I can't help it! It's a physical thing--overactive tear ducts, I call it. It's not that I feel things more (at least I don't think so) it's just that my feeling express themselves, annoyingly, through tears.[/quote]

Yeah me too, I was also like your daughter. I'm 36. I think I was like this till 10 or so? Around 8 or so, I started going into the guest room closet where my parents stacked extra blankets and that became my place to cry in private.  For me, crying was/is a relief. I still cry all the time at movies, weddings, graduations, even for people I don't know very well. Its kind of embarrassing but what can you do.  [/quote]

I'm another one of these people. I work in a tough industry, play sports, and don't mind physical pain. However, I cry just talking about commercials involving puppies. As a 2nd grader, I absolutely would have teared up either thinking I was getting yelled at or watching the people near me get yelled at. Mostly from shock. In the milk situation I would say something like the PP suggested, "You may ask me to get you some milk, too!"[/quote]
