What To Do When Your Pre-Pre-Teen Turns... Mean

Sep. 4, 2023
it's just a phase, right?
What To Do When Your Pre-Pre-Teen Turns... Mean

September is a time of changes and transitions. But what if some of those changes are… for the worse? Alexandra Frost writes: "They aren't angry toddlers anymore. But they haven't grown up enough to tell you off in classic teen fashion, like teens through the centuries. What's going on with that middle age group — our young elementary friends, ages 7 to 11 ish — who are in the midst of pre-pre-teen angst, moodiness, and well, mean attitudes? Turns out a lot, as these are key developmental years, though they aren't discussed as prominently in social media forums and parenting groups."

If this sounds alarmingly familiar, she's got your back with some helpful advice. Good luck out there!
