Hello all
My 4 year old nephew seems to struggle with the concept that other people maybe do things accidentally and that their actions are malicious and he gets quite anxious about it. Eg. if a child is playing with cars near his train set then he worries they will destroy his train track and then if they do, he thinks they've done it intentionally.
I understand this is probably something he will grow out of but was wondering if anyone has recommendations for books I could give him for Xmas which might address this and help him handle it.
I will also talk to my sister about if she thinks a book will help and I understand she may not appreciate that her childless younger sister is 'helping' with the parenting. But we've discussed the fact that his anxiety over people ruining his fun actually prevents him from having fun in the first place as he's too busy worrying!
When I've looked on Amazon there was one about a bag of worries but people stated that one of the things the girl in the book was worried about was being fat and I don't think a 4 year old (or anyone really) needs to be given more things to worry about.
Thanks
McPo
