[quote=Anonymous]She’s 7. People here need to calm down. I don’t know why random remarks from a 7 year old are enough to make so many people on this board so insecure and self-conscious… but that’s the nature of DCUM. Anyway, OP, it sounds like she wants more attention for her accomplishments and needs some social skills help. I’d particularly focus on statements that could make others feel bad (saying other kids take too long to do their work, for instance). This is when she should be learning kindness and empathy. It would be great to redirect that energy into praise or help for others. It would also be good to talk about how our words could affect others, and that it’s not necessary to brag about our accomplishments. Overall, this really isn’t a big deal. It is a good age to address it, though. [/quote]
