3.5 year old brain-fade???

[Arcadia]

I found dd at 3.5 also moody and tearful and more extreme emotionally. She has settled heaps in the last few weeks and is four in a month.

I see lots of kids stammer when talking because their brain is going a hundred miles an hour.

As for the wet bed incident, I'm not sure but dd has been testing boundaries in interesting ways recently. She hid from me today for five minutes while I frantically called and searched a d then said she couldn't hear me...? I think it's part of their process of developing an idea of themselves and the world.

I could have written 99% of this post about my DD1, similar age. Kind of reassuring to hear others experiencing it too.

I also could have written this about my DS. Every day is a power struggle. I put it down to the major developmental changes they are having - it seems like their brains are maturing too fast for their emotions and it's hard for them to cope.
