Tells me he hates me

NAS75930

My son is 4 and when I tell him not to do something, he swears and tells me he hates me! School have already told him about the word 'hate' but he's back to it again

I just need someone to talk to!

P.s hes not been diagnosed yet

  • I wouldn't read too much into this, small children often do not like being told what to do and test boundaries constantly. My older daughter was extremely defiant of authority at that age, and would have screaming tantrums, I often would carry her up to her bedroom and just have to wait for her to calm down. My neice gathered a few nappies and her favourite toys, put them in a bag and announced that she was leaving home as her mother, "Was ruining her life".  She didn't make it as far as the garden gate, of course.
