... i mean she uses intonations, tones and in a totally innapropriate way. Not only innapropriate but usually without any connection to the real disscusion. She became really annoying lately when she started using all these 'adult' tones, preaching everybody around her. She doesn't seem to distinguish between her telling a younger child what to do or an adult. She copies her teacher's voice to talk to whoever is in her way. Those tones, i could cope with, no matter how annoying, but the fact that a 6yo can't make the difference between how to talk to an adult or a child worries me (despite the long talks we had about respect, differences among ages etc ... she just can't get it). What can it be???? why is she doing it??? am i doiong smth wrong in teaching her or do we really have a problem?
