Does your child act like a mom?

It's so wonderful to hear that your older son role models after you. It's always a mother's dream come true when her children follow her path.

As for your younger child, please have no worries. Often a younger child will purposely choose to be the opposite from the older sibling, so that he or she will stand out and be noticed. It's nature's way of survival.

Most likely, our next child will be much different than the first, personality wise.

I am sure your younger child will find the right path, soon! Be well and thanks for sharing your mom wisdom.

It's not as bad as I thought at first:)
He's just different. The older one thinks like me too and it's easier for me to relate to him....while I have to make the effort to understand the younger one because he's different. But he's not as troublesome as some other kids I've seen. So, it's all good.

I am so happy to hear that! (I sent you a private message a moment ago. I am not sure it got through).

It did and I sent you a reply (though I had sent you a message before that)

I got your email! Thanks. I sent a reply. Hope it made it through.

I giggled when I read your story. What a cutie! That reminds me of my daughter so much. She can also throw a mega sized tantrum when she wants. But, her heart is pure gold. Thanks for sharing your story.

While I was on holiday, she had a huge tantrum in the street, she has never done this before, she stamped her foot and was shouting and then sat down and rolled on the floor.

Some lovely chinese tourists were walking past at the time and they thought it was hilarious and stood around watching her!! When she noticed she went really quiet and had the grace to look a bit ashamed of herself, but it stopped her in her tracks.

She got a little upset though when she realized that during her tantrum she had rolled in seagull poo!!! That will teach her.

Oh my! I can't imagine mine would roll on the ground outside, she hates germs. That would freak her out. But, I guess life is a learning lesson best taught through experience.

My own child is going through similar difficulties. One of my OB/GYN's was telling me (before my child was born) that he had three daughters and they get sassy acting long before they hit their teen years. So, I was kind of prepared for some of her attitude.

That's adorable! Sounds like my little girl. She is super tidy and keeps everyone, including the cats in their place. Sometimes I find her scolding her dolls and telling them to behave. She will be an excellent mom, because she has the perfect balance of brains and heart. Be well.

Mine has attitude to spare! I did not know little girls would have so much sass and attitude in them. But I am so happy for her. Mine is frustrating at times and I just have to stand back and let her do her own thing. Of course, I do set the limits to protect her safety. But, if it's something that I can safely just let go on, I find that me and the little girl have no issues or arguments. Mine loves her freedom. Honestly, I mine sees herself as a grown up and doesn't even make the distinction between herself and me.

That is so cute and precious! I hope you don't mind me saying so. He is a darling! My little girl is always chastizing the kitten and telling her the same thing. Literally she says, "Behave or I'll put you in time out!" I thought mine was the only one that did that. Your little one sounds like he has two very responsible and mature role models. He'll turn out just fine. Be well. Thanks for adding something wonderful to the conversation.

Tee hee! I'm not telling. Mine is the same way though. I can imagine that my little girl is just practicing for adulthood when she has her own kids. I guess some kids are that way. And, it's a good thing. The next generation (their kids) will benefit. Thanks for dropping by to chat with us, today!
