The predicament of sharing
Life, Samila Wenin, Published on 06/03/2012
» One common problem experienced by many parents is the difficulty of getting their little ones _ the inside of whose heads resonate in the musical scale that is "Me, Me, Me" _ to share. I consider myself pretty lucky not having to reprimand my child in public should she happen to refuse to spare even the tiniest amount of her candy to a friend. The problem with my child is the other way round _ she gives away too much. So much so that she would feel bad being called "stingy" by a friend just because she wanted to keep her favourite flavour of Chupa Chups to herself after that friend refused to take the other flavour she offered and demanded my child hand over the one she kept.
Don't take 'no' for an answer
