All kids are different. We never heard that line from our kids. I think because my partner understood what they were going through, and was able to talk it through with the kid and was patient and was able to steer the emotions in the right direction. I never understood that super talent, and I'm very grateful to be with someone who just knows how to read emotions. Not sure if this helps, but KILL THEM WITH KINDNESS might be a good starting point strategy.
