Last dr appointment my son had i asked them what would be a good way to make him a little more social with other kids. He told me when we go out dont follow him around. Keep him in eye sight but dont hover. So yesterday we went to a bday party. They had a jumper/water slide thing that i let him go run off and play in with other kids. I watched him the whole time. I let him figure out how to get up in it by himself. He ran back to me so many times to hug me and make me go with him. I just sent him on his way after each hug. For a while everytime a child would go near him hed run back crying to me. After a bit he finally got okay with it and played alone but by the other kids. I felt so bad seeing him look uncomfortable in the situation. I did get up and go play with him after a while because i just couldnt watch it anymore. He is definitely not a social kid which i hope changes when he starts school. I don't have friends who either actually have their kids or dont smoke or drink or just wanna hangout with our kids around. So he doesn't have interaction with other kids. I called his dr and told him that solution wasnt for us and if there were any other options and his response was "guess you should rethink your parenting" and HUNG UP. Does anyone else have ideas i can get him more social on his own comfortable terms??
its weird that he isnt interacting with other kids specially if he has a sibling. Your pediatrician doesn't sound great, maybe change oedistritians and do a social assesment if you are concerned, or just wait it out and take him to the park everyday till he gets more comfortable around other kids
you are doing fine. As long as you are boosting his self esteem and loving and supporting him, he will be perfectly fine.
Eta ds3 was/is like this. We take him to baby gym, an indoor play place in the mall. I watch constantly but I've stopped following him around.
First- fire your pediatrician.
Second- there are ways to encourage and comfort without pushing. Start off with one on one play dates. Plan activities or crafts for them to interact. Then add more kids to the mix.
Three- Always comfort your baby when they seek it out. They should trust Mom and Dad are always there for them.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Question. I just left my husband for cheating and now hes been harassing me. Hes threatening to come get our son. I dont care if he sees his son but I'm not comfortable with him leaving with him bc hes never taken care of him a day In his life and he might use him against me. Am I wrong for feeling this way??
So its really over between me n him. Im angry n hurt. He block me from reaching out to him. Im so upset. So i want him to be punish for hurting me. What should i do? I have naked pics of him i want to put out. I want to call his job get him fired. Im so hurt. This is his first child n he dont even want to be here for the birth. 4 damn yrs n it come to this. What should i do? I want Revenge
Strippers.
How do you all feel about your SO/hubby going to the strip club? I honestly have jealousy issues and I dont approve of it for my SO, as he already doesn't like too go. But i feel like if he wants to see women stripping on poles, I can be his own personal stripper. Lol ? I am just curious to see what others feel and think!
My boyfriend is so upset that I didn’t give our son his last name but I have 4 other kids that has my last name I didn’t want to make him the only one with a different last name. Is that selfish of me? Or should he just understand. We not married
Just found out 2 days ago that I'm pregnant with my third. I was totally shocked! I haven't gotten my period for a while now, but last time I took 2 tests and they both came out negative. So I was really shocked when I took 2 more tests 2 days ago and they both came out positive. I already have a 16 year old daughter and my husband and I have a 5 year old daughter. My 16 year old is beyond pissed off and saying the most hurtful things she possibly can to me. My 5 year is thrilled. My husband wants a paternity test because he thinks I cheated on him (which I did not) back in April which is probably when I got pregnant. This is all almost too much for me to handle. I have severe depression and anxiety and stopped taking my meds because of the pregnancy. I just feel like crying
