[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Might be time for him to learn to ask himself these questions before speaking: Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? Is it helpful? [/quote] This is age appropriate for an 8 year old. They say stuff OP. My kids have done it. Maybe the other mom is prettier Who cares. You have to be the adult and your role in this situation is not to center your own feelings but to make sure he gets it why he can't say this kind of thing.[/quote] No, it's completely inappropriate for a normally developing 8 year old to say this to his mother. This is not about whether OP is pretty or whether the other mom is pretty. This is about an 8 year old boy who should know but does that we don't say unkind things about people's looks, particularly directly to them.[/quote]
