I have a daughter, she just turned 10. She has developed the worst attitude. She has been raised well. She is loved and has everything she needs. Lately she has been acting worse then my toddler. We had to come home early today from Easter dinner because she pitched a horrible fit and made a huge scene. This isn't like her. I am wondering if this is normal? She just starts crying about nothing. I know preteens are emotional but this is over board. Does anyone have this problem, or is there a bigger issue?
I may not be a mother, but i am nearly 16 yrs with 3 younger siblings all around that age. i'm gonna say that that is perfectly normal.what your daughter is doing is exactly what i was doing at her age (according to my mother).Its her way of trying to pull away from being that little girl she was before.she's torn between being a kid and a preteen.my advice:giver her some space and some time for herslf.Things should calm down in no time.its just phases us kids go thru.i wish i could tell you this is the only time you'll see her acting like this, but that would be lying.my mom occasionally gets on me about how she raised be better than that and that sometimes she thinks i hate her (which is never true by the way!).
I'd start checking into things. Is your daughter having trouble at school? is there a teacher she doesn't like? is she being bullied? Have her friends shunned her? Is she hanging out with a different set of friends who are teaching her to misbehave?
In any case, it clearly isn't acceptable for a 10 year old to ruin a holiday meal. You need to try to nip that in the bud now. You need to not reward misbehavior but you also need to be ready to listen to any problems she may be having.
im not a parent im just 16 but from a child that was 10 and acted the same exact ways point of view, she needs for you to tell her that you love her more she probably feels lost and alone like i did at that age and wants more attention from you you need to spend a da devoted to her and have more bonding moments chances are shes really confussed right now about who she is and shee doesn't feel loved please do this for her becuse this is what i needed. i am hoping that it works out.
personlly ii think she might have a problem in school - bullies - friends you should ask her abt it and let her say what ever she wants dont get into a argument or anything let her say whatever she wants..
or it could just be a 10 year old . hormonal - bad additude ii no when ii was 11 ii got really bad and moody ii think it might be a 10 year old.
hope ii helped
kids never talk to thier parents about social life.maybe she is getting bugged to the last point and does not take being teased very well.im having my first child in 3 months.and im very sensative about bieng tesed
I dont think you should worry.What I think is that she wants more attention.So,since you are her mother,try to shower her more with more care and before you know it,her attitude will change.
does she have pms? well all kid's just blow at a time in there life,she's just want's attention, that's all but not "quility time" just go shopping or something.
i was like that maybe something is wrong in her life that she is not telling you about. it is normal for girls to behave like that, is she growing boobs
