How do I help my daughter not be the mean girl 😔. There is a girl in her class that has a really bad stutter and this is actually her second year in preK because of it. She is a very sweet, shy little girl. Well today in the car my daughter started to pretend to have a very exaggerated stutter. I asked her why she was doing that and her answer was everyone in the class does and it’s funny.
My heart just broke. I was the kid who was held back and had a stutter growing up. We had a long talk about how we don’t want to make people sad and laughing at them is not ok. Is this age appropriate and I just need to keep correcting until it clicks?
I will point out that I have never gotten a bad report about her from the school or daycare. Everyone says she’s a delight to around so maybe I am taking my own personal experience and making it into bigger deal....

It definitely is age appropriate but it is good that you're correcting it. Maybe even tell her about your experience in an age appropriate manner
I did try to explain from my perspective but she just can’t understand that mommy was once a kid like her. Of course in the middle of the discussion I started stuttering which happens when I am upset or tired. She just thought I was making fun as well. Totally felt like a failure for that little girl. It’s so hard being the kid no one understands 😔
@lovebug-mom I would try showing her pictures from when you were little and having the talk with her then. Always encourage her to be nice. Books help put things like this into perspective at this age. Try getting some from the library about bullying.
I think that’s totally age appropriate and an important discussion to have with her. At that age, I don’t think kids really do and say things to be mean and bully. They might not understand how something they think is “funny” could really be hurting another child’s feelings. I think you did a great job by talking to her about it, and no, I don’t think you are overreacting. Your daughter is probably just innocently copying other kids/ another kid in the class, so helping her understand what is wrong with it is very important.
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...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
I would just talk to her and explain people are different and it’s not nice to make fun of someone because they are different. That it can hurt there feelings.
