DD1 - 7. Quite sensitive normally. Just seems so sad/miserable at the moment. She is just truly grumpy. Doing jigsaws with DD2 and DD1 flipped as DD2 wasnt doing the edges first. (sigh). Everything is getting an irrational response from her.
I've gone from being understanding ti being quite peeved.
I have asked if anything is troubling her - No. (she is starting Juniors in Sep but hasnt mentioned that as n issue)
If she is tired - I AM NOT TIRED (ahem).
If I can do anything to make her feel happy and less sad - she stormed off to her bedroom and is now playing alone.
In the past I have read, The Highly Sensitive Child, and it did help us understand DD - tbh I have very similar traits, and I do wonder if that causes it's own problems.
Any ideas on how I can help DD identify how she is feeling - Ihonestly dont think she knows what the problem is....
