[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 9-year-old just said "I hate you" to me. She was mad that another family member got a gift that she wanted. I also got her the same thing, but I didn't want to give it to her in front of the other family member, since I thought it would take away from the specialness for the other family member, since it was the only gift we got them and my daughter got a ton of stuff. When I tried to gently pull her toward me to whisper to her that she got one too, she pretended I hurt her (which I certainly did not), started crying, then said "I hate you." Now I'm on DCUM venting and feeling like I've failed as a parent. Ugh. :-([/quote] Show her the gift that she wanted and then tell her she isn't going to get it now. Nine is NOT FOUR and your daughter is being a brat. You should start another thread - your situation has nothing to do with OP's situation unless you are also a narcissist and not telling us the whole story. [/quote]
