Hi my 6 year old ds is so sensitive I don't know what to do about it. He gets very excited about seeing people, friends & family but then becomes very emotional when it's time to leave or they leave. On Sunday we went to visit my mum's new puppy and he loved it but then cried all the way home in the car as he didn't want to leave her.
Today we had two friends and their mum's round and he just didn't enjoy it at all. They were arguing, telling tales and he just ended up in tears several times! The other boys didn't cry once and it was all a bit awkward. I didn't know whether to tell him off or console him. As soon as they's gone he was fine as if nothing had happened!
My dh said he takes after me as I am quite sensitive and emotional but I don't know how to handle it in him and am worried it will affect him having friends.
Can anyone help please?
