[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trust me, we spend a good chunk of the day with me ignoring her bad behavior or putting her in a time out, so I do set limits. She just pushes me on every single thing and is a very sensitive little girl.[b] She cried today because she didn't like the shirt I was wearing and she wanted me to change - which I did not. I left the room and she cried for 5 more minutes and then moved on the the next thing,[/b] which was pulling all of her books off of her book shelf and throwing them. I told her to pick them up with me which set off World War 3 because she doesn't want them on the shelf anymore. Once again, I didn't indulge her behavior and walked away which she cried. [/quote]

So when she whined at you that she didn't like your shirt, what did you do?  I would have ignored. And I don't mean "Larla, I am sorry you are unhappy with my shirt choice but I get to choose what I want to wear just like you do, blah, blah, blah".  I would not even have acknowledged it or I would have said "oh well" and went on with my day.

And your child isn't "sensitive", she is just a brat and gets whiny quickly because it gets your attention.[/quote]

You clearly don't have a sensitive kid or a child with anxiety.  If you did, you would be more understanding. It's people like you that make those of us who do have anxious kids feel like crap.[/quote]
