AIBU to ask you how often your kids talk back at nanny/kindergarden teachers/people who give them sports lessons and so on?
Ds is going to enter school this year and typically he is a very polite and lovely boy unless he is in company of others boys who he is trying to impress (for example on the play ground) and/or something goes against his principles.
I have just been informed that he threw a tantrum in kindergarten because they cleaned the eating table with a dirty sponge (or he thought it was dirty) and he had to eat some fruits that were placed on the table.
He went to the playground with nanny and his siblings and played with some older boys. When it was time to leave he tried to hide and run away while laughing at her and when she made him leave he called her names all while looking at the older boys whom he did not know before for approvement.
In kindergarten he often climbs/tassels/jumps at other boys. They tell me he has a very high activity level. He also tries to impress them by doing dangerous things.
It is very odd because he never talks back to me or his Dad. He is also very obedient and sweet with other grown ups when no other boys are around. I get complimented on how well brought up he is... but only so if bother boys are around.
Should I be worried or is this normal for a boy his age? He is my oldest and I have the feeling lots of people dealing with him think he is a complicated child.
