[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Wait how are a 10 and 7 year old tweens??? 7 year olds are in 1st/2nd grade, 10 year olds are in 4th/5th. I really don’t think tween starts til about age 11. Anyway. Their kids are young. OP is not “indulging” them in catastrophizing here. She’s validating their normal emotional reactions to being manipulated and shamed (also known as emotional abuse) by their father. She’s being supportive toward them when they rightfully feel undermined and shamed by their other parent.[/quote]DP. Her kids get upset because he has a craving and skips the family meal. No, she needs to not blame her husband and explain to her kids older adults sometimes get irritable bowel, cravings, smell aversions, blood sugar issues, etc. Kids need to learn if they go to a party and one person uses the restroom instead of eating, not to make a scene. Yes, grade school 7 ( and cusp of tween 10y.o.) is old enough to learn this.[/quote] PP, its clear English is not your first language, so I assume your reading comprehension and writing fluency are about the same. Which is to say, go back and reread the OP's post. You are missing many facts.[/quote]
