So it's not that we can never use the word you, but if you're using that word you, that's one of the ways that parents can be doing their best to acknowledge a child's feelings, but just irritate the child even more.
Yeah, no, when I hear this question, I'm back in early days with my son who also did not respond.
I can so relate to this.
It's really frustrating when you just want to get in there and ask a question or get him to, you know, to get ready for the next thing.
And they just ignore you.
It's really hard not to take it personally.
Right.
You know, I remember, you know, trying to get my son's attention and like he doesn't even look up.
And I think, you know, that, that feels like he's just ignoring me.
And I was talking to a friend and she said, well, have you had his hearing checked?
I'm like, I know years.
Um,
So what really helps me and what helped me with my son was one of the things we talk about in both of our books is to put myself in his shoes, which is a little tricky because he experiences the world very differently from the way I do.
But I know that my son has a hard time shifting his attention.
The positive spin on it is that he's really good at focusing on something and thinking deeply about
But what that means is he kind of tunes out the rest of the world.
And he's really focused on whatever issue or problem or thing that he's working on.
And I can relate to that because there have been times when I'm highly focused on something or maybe I'm working on an email and I'm trying to get just the right wording.
And this just happened the other day.
My husband comes and he tries to interrupt me.
