WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A 6 YEAR OLD

[@lisaylot5117]

Your videos are a Godsend!🙌 despite knowing that my child isn’t different (developmentally) I’ve struggled with not taking it personally 🥲 watching your videos reminds me that parenting isn’t for the faint of heart & that I’m not alone in the “battles”, which makes me feel better for some reason☺️😆 thank you for this! Definitely describes by almost 6 year old daughter to a T

I found your videos and omg you have saved me from my gell I've been living in!!! I can't thank you enough. Ive been in tears everyday trying to parent my twin 6 yr olds as a single mom with a 17 year old as well. You explained everything I needed to know so well I have watched your videos over and over again!!! Thank you so much for the information you share, you are amazing !!!!

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

Oh you poor thing! Twins AND a teenager, on your own. I'm so glad you found my videos in this time of need. You've got this! 💪

[@Lady_of_Shalott]

Thank you so much for this wonderful video. It describes perfectly well my 6-year-old' s behaviour...I have felt such a relief to know that his behaviour is normal and just a developmental phase..Looking forward for the 6 years and a half improvement...

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

@@Lady_of_Shalott so glad to hear this, relief is what we want so we can diffuse the tension and make it through the storm ❤️

[@Lukho_M]

I needed this. I have just started staying with my 6yr who has been staying with his grandmother and I find myself overparenting/ yelling and yet overpampering at the same time.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

So glad you found this video when you needed it

[@marionb299]

Thanks for this video. I also find it hard at times not to take things personally and this has reminded me of the bigger picture…! They are going through so many changes and it is so much for them to deal with. Keep on supporting them and giving them time to grow…x

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

@@marionb299 it's so hard to zoom out when we are in the eye of the storm! So glad you found this video helpful ❤️

[@merondubale1703]

Hi Anna, I have to say this video is highly validating! I have been taking my 6yr old's behaviour very personally and have been beating myself up - which is why I have even googled for advice. Even though I have an awareness of these things already and a lot of things seems very common sense, going through this is a very different situation. Yes it is a wild rollercoaster ride! I'm very glad I came across your video. I'm not going crazy! Thank God.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

@@merondubale1703 so glad you found this video when you needed it! And yes it's so easy to lose sight of what we know when we are in the eye of the storm, I know the feeling all too well ❤️

[@divinelotus19]

Thank you so much. 💓 My husband reminds me all the time that they are kids and growing.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

He sounds like an amazing man! ❤️

[@u.shine3392]

Thank you so much for this video. My son has been very emotional lately and he doesn't know what's going on. This video helps me to understand what he is going through.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

You are most welcome, if he started school as well it adds another layer as they absorb so much from others at school. Hope this passes quickly for you both ❤️

[@madviramessur3913]

Thanks a lot, very eye opening explanations and advise.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

You are most welcome ❤️

[@hammypie742]

All my questions about a 6 year old has been answered! Thanks!

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

I'm so glad to hear that. Often all we need is understanding of what is age appropriate behaviour so we can shift our perspective. Thank you commenting ❤️

[@psharpe5904]

You definitely deserve more subscribers. This is good info.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

I love this video. Thank you.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

So glad to hear this video was helpful to you and your family!

[@salma_Nella22]

I spent one on one time last night for 2 hours and today he was the doing the worst. We had a great time and connected. Im very confused as to why he’s doing the worst today

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

@@salma_Nella22 the link between connection and better behaviour doesn't work that way. It's not as clean cut. Him doing the worst today has nothing to do with you spending 2hrs with him yesterday. Connection is important as it allows to stay connected to our kids during dysregulated periods, it doesn't necessarily mean their misbehaviour will disappear completely. Hope that makes sense

[@shalinmuthike4057]

This is so incredibly informative, thank you

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

So glad you found this video helpful Shalin

[@karosita78]

[@cristinagoh7639]

My daughter is coming 8yrs old this November and It’s driving me crazy on how she behave 😭😭 pls make a video about 7-8yrs old behaviour, I hope how she behave is just a phase 🥺🥺🥺😖

[@alicezdrale1350]

Thank you for the amazing summary! All great tips. Is there a book on 7year olds?

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

You are most welcome! Yes there are books til 14yo I believe - although I do feel that from 8yo kids become very much individuals and it's a lot harder to pick themes but that's just my personal opinion. I haven't had a chance to do a summary on the 7yo one yet.

[@Jupiter753BCE]

Bravo. Yes, our 6 year old is a hot mess. Clothes and Toys everywhere. I do like to spend some extra time with him at night and talk about the day. Keep up the good work!!!

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

'A hot mess' 🤣🤣 thank you for the laugh! Glad this video was validating for you

[@dicassobeats]

Hi, I am really enjoying your videos. Thank you. My son is 6 years old and has developed an extreme attitude problem (and violent) towards people. We are trying to figure out what to do and how to stop this with no luck so far.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

So glad you found me and that you are finding these videos helpful. Highly recommend you watch my summary of 'The Explosive Child' for a framework on how to approach conversation with your kid. At 6yo I reckon he should be able to tell you what's happening to him. It's definitely a phase but obviously you are wanting to stop or rather avoid the violent behaviour. Some things I'd specifically look into - get feedback from his teacher, try to gather if there are friendship issues, any change in his life at the moment? Best of luck with it all!

[@Sleaved4Society]

I'm stuck in a does he have something else going on or does he needs to have diagnosed or is it normal. Thank you for your video.

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

I think we all wonder this with 6yo! Wait it out for another few months and see how it goes. Good luck!

[@barbaralovejoy1080]

What about a 10-11 year old.

[@humblegenuine1004]

Yes, we would love a video on this age group.

[@VVG884]

I love all your videos

Battling all of this right now

Hang in there!! ❤️

[@Ninishiningleaf]

So does the rollercoaster of regulation and disregualtion continue into adult life?

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

@@Ninishiningleaf not it doesn't. This is specifically related to child development i.e. these periods are needed for their growth

[@biancas7624]

What about 13 year olds? 😅

[@GrowwithAnnaB]

@@biancas7624 is it bad? 🤣 The teens book is actually 'Your 10 to 14 year old' and I'm planning to do it at some point this year.
