Default Re: Unreasonable expectations for CRAZY 6 year old?

My ADD 8 year old was VERY much like this at 6. She has, without any intervention, pretty much grown out of it (the behaviors when she is being talked to, not the ADD) in the last 2 years. So much so that I forgot how much she was like that until reading your post.

My not ADD 6 year old son is also a little like this, but not to the extent that she was.

And with all of my kids, I've seen that 6 is just an age of BIG EMOTIONS. They grow out of it. Even my 8 year old, who is still a pretty big emotions person, is nothing like the CANNOT HANDLE LIFE meltdowns all day person that she and her siblings all were/are at 6.
