[quote=Anonymous]Kids do well when they can. He doesn’t want to be manipulating you. Best not to interpret it that way. The idea of small children as manipulative is backward and unhelpful. I used to have that thinking too. I have a special needs child and I had to do a lot of work on myself and my assumptions to best parent him. I’m still working on it. Therapy. Books. This forum. It’s work to get out of your own way and truly show up for your child. We are not blaming you for not having done the work yet. We are just inviting you to join us in it. It’s a lot. Good luck.
