[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not tell your DC about the panic attack if he's not aware of it. That's simply for the reason of protecting the privacy of that other child. If that information got into the wrong hands he could be bullied badly for his panic reaction. I would have a discussion in general with DC about not touching people without their consent, not hitting and shoving even as a joke, age appropriate behavior, etc. I would rather use hypothetical examples, like a playful push could lead someone to twist their ankle or hit their head, and that DC is now bigger and stronger and needs to be more mindful. And [b]also bring up how some people may have triggers and experiences that will make them react badly to a touch that DC meant as playful or innocent (like a swat on the butt)[/b]. [/quote] I don't think you need to have a trigger or prior experience to react badly to being touched on the butt...[/quote]
