"guest" child won't look at me, or speak to me ... anything I can do?

We have a 3-year-old visiting. She's pretty good friends with DS2, and gets on with DS1, too.

She's always been a bit funny with me, tbh.

She won't look at me, and is covering her face if I'm in the room. I can hear her interacting fine with both DSes, so I can tell she's not distraught.

But it's a little bloody weird, isn't it? And it means I have to delegate DS1 to help her with the loo ...

Well, today went better, she was much friendlier with me, and she hit my DSes less, too.

Marina, I'm afraid your DD would be disappointed now, my hair really isn't that short any more at all.

Blimey, I missed the hitting bit.

That would concern me tbh.

She's 3, she's a bit free with her hands sometimes. I'm used to this sort of thing from the co-op, tbh.
