Argh my dcks are in weird stages right now.
My dcb (who is 4) claims everything that we have that's the same as his at home--this one book in particular. He insists it's his and wants to take it home and cries because it's here. We talk about how he has the same one at home and that HIS is still there but THIS one is ours and needs to stay. I would expect this out of a 2 but not a 4. It gets wearing.
Everything that one says elicits a "ME TOO!" from the other. Even when these things are definitely NOT something the other child did/has/etc. I gently correct them sometimes and ignore it others but it gets wearing.
And the same DCB from Mine above says, no less than 140 times a day (give or take a few :P) "Well but at MY house..." which is fine and dandy but it's about EVERYTHING. I say sometime about a cat and he insists that at HIS house they have a different cat...which is true, but really kid? It gets wearing.
And then my dcg keeps bringing up the zoo...in every conversation. This is a transcript of the sort of thing I deal with ALL DAY...Me: "Hi kitty!" DCB: "Well at MY house we have a dog!" DCG:" Me too! I went to the zoo and saw monkeys and bats and snakes!" ME: :confused:
