Blaming Me For My Crying Brother
One of the pains of being a parent is seeing your child cry. The things we would do just to get them to stop crying is endless. Come to think of it, this is their way of telling us they want something and how they wouldn’t stop until they get what they want. I don’t know but that’s kind of manipulative, don’t you think? Kidding!
This was one of the things that the sibling of one user learned. When he was 5 years old and his brother was 2, his brother already learned that if he wanted anything, all he had to do was cry. His parents would automatically assume that he had done something to make him cry and thus, punish him – usually by hitting. This is just sad.
