[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Recently my son started telling me that he hates me for the stupedist of things. I would tell him to go wash his hands and he'd reply with "no, I hate you." So, I told him it really hurts my feelings when he says that because I'm pretty sure he doesn't hate me, but he is just angry with me. I also let him sit in his room. I told him he is entitled to his feelings, but I don't have to listen to it. It stopped after a week.[/quote] I have done the same. My 8 yr. old, who is a fairly cheerful and happy child, tells me after I correct him that he just knows that we wished he was never born. He gets so dramatic. He was planned and our only child, and love him beyond words. When I ask him to explain how my actions justify his thoughts, he just walks away. He was always the dearest toddler, never went through the terrible 2s or 3s, and has become a little sassy the last few months. He asked me last night if girls go through a monthly thing - I had no idea how to respond!!!!!!!!!![/quote] My 8 year old says the same thing if I correct him -- "you and daddy never should have had me." Apparently being dramatically is pretty typical of this age....[/quote]
