Daughter started putting her hands on her throat and pushing to cut off breathing. I have caught her doing this 3 times. She is almost 3. I have tried finding answers online and come up empty handed. I feel some of it is for attention. So I try not to make a huge deal. And just say stop. That’s not funny. Ouch. And remove her hands. (She likes to do it when sitting at a table or somewhere she can prop her elbows then push her head and neck down if that makes sense)

Any other moms have their kids do this? Is this a phase? I’m so lost why she would do this.

I feel like she may have seen this on YouTube. One day my daughter was watching YouTube and it was a cartoon on that was doing weird stuff like that so I stopped her from watching YouTube and downloaded YouTube kids.

Yep. It's totally a phase and like you said she's doing it for attention. My daughter used to pinch herself or bang her head. Sometimes it was from being frustrated (she had a speech delay) but most of the time she just wanted my attention. Try redirecting her. That's what I found was the best way to stop the behavior. I would offer another activity or sit down and sing or read with her when she was self-harming and the behavior stopped after a few months

That’s helps. Yeah my daughter has a speech delay as well. She just recently really started talking. We have a lot of improvement to do but she is finally communicating her needs with 1-2 words and an occasional small sentence.

@tiera_shaye definitely try redirecting then since she has a delay. It really could be that she's frustrated but it sounds like she wants some extra attention and she knows you respond. Just remember to stay calm and don't overreact because she's probably not doing it hard enough to actually make herself pass out

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page

So idk if I’m an asshole for thinking this but a girl I used to go to school with is having her 3rd kid and she’s planning a baby shower and she had one with her other two. I feel like a baby shower is something you do with ur first pregnancy. I live far from my family so I didn’t have one but i did have a baby registry and I’m not even doing that with this pregnancy. Idk I just feel like 3 baby showers is a lot! Especially when she gets things handed to her. Idk maybe I’m an ass for thinking that

Ok, so my friend is wanting to get pregnant but..... Her fiancé does not want kids, at lease for another 3-5 years he said... so she came up with the idea to have me pee on a stick for her and show it to him so that he’ll be comfortable with not wearing a condom and finishing in her.. basically the whole idea is to make him think she’s pregnant already...... so I do this favor for her or should I tell my girl to chill? He and my husband are friends through us and he’s going to invite him over tonight and run it by him...
