[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well here is the good news op. When you catch your child saying something mean to another- and you will- you can remind her of this incident and how she felt. [/quote] OP here. I know this is hard for some of you to believe. But some kids just don't think like that. My DD (and no she is not my first child) is far from perfect. She is sensitive and shy and and is reluctant to do things independently - all things we are working on - but it would just never occur to her to tease or be mean to another child. And I think that is why it was so hard for her to understand why another child would say something like that. This same little boy finishes all of his worksheets really quickly and announces to his tablemates "I'm finished. I win!" every day. Something is up with the way this kid is being parented. You will not convince me otherwise. [/quote] Your DD has a personality and so does that boy. It may be due to parenting but more likely it's his personality. I was a painfully shy girl in grade school. I don't think it's bad for your DD to learn how to deal with or ignore a stronger aggressive personality. She probably won't master that this year, but over time she will.[/quote]
