5 year old guilt tripping me
Anyone else deal with this? It’s really hard and it makes me feel so bad! My 5 year old son was mad that I wouldn’t let him watch a movie in his room because it was bedtime and it’s a school night. He started throwing a fit and wouldn’t go to his room so I starting guiding him to his room from the back and as soon as I put my hands on his back he threw himself onto the floor and acted like I shoved him down. I was clearly out of patience and was just like “dude, come on” and he started screaming acting like he was hurt, I carried him to bed and he was like “You pushed me!” And I said “Buddy, I did not mean to push you, you can’t throw yourself like that, you can really hurt yourself” and he just kept saying “You hurt me!” And it made feel like shit obviously because I hardly even put pressure on his back, I didn’t push him AT ALL. So I said “You know I love you, but you cannot lie like that.” And he said “no I don’t, I don’t know anything” and I ask him why he would think that and he goes “I would if you let me watch a movie” 😑
