Last Saturday, MC came home after playing with her friend, in a good mood.
And then suddenly, she found everything at home not in order.
She complained about the smell of the grill (our tenants were in the garden having a little party), she complained that her room is a mess (we were in the middle of tidying up when she left to play with her friend), and then to our amazement, she started throwing things around!
Well, I had to stop her! I took her in my arms and told her to take a break first. She wont, instead she run back to her room, scattering her toys around. I told her to stop or else everything would be broken and she wont have toys to play with anymore.
She answered me back with these words: 'Niemand hat mich lieb' Nobody loves me.
Huh? What did she say? I was shocked and a bit curious with her dramatic display. In fact, I asked her to repeat what she just said. She did, with a hint of embarrassment. Right there and then, I told her, of course we love her.
She calmed down after a few minutes and she cleaned up her room without saying anything.
But later that night, I had to ask her where she got those words from. Did she hear those words from anyone? Did she get those from a movie? Where?
Nothing. She simply smiled at me.

I also get surprised when Yohan displays a different kind of emotion and behavior I haven't witnessed before.
Kids can easily pick up new words and behavior from their surroundings.
hello raquel,
kumusta na....
remember ko rin si kim magsabi ng ganito, until now,....lalo na kung may kailangan....lol
ako rin, lalo na nagulan sa bahay gawain.....Niemand hat mich lieb!!!!
hast du mich lieb?????
du---i liebe dich sehr......
rach - it is sometimes a shock to hear some melodramatic words coming from my girls' mouth and sometimes, i dont know how to react
vk - ich hab dich auch lieb :D i guess, kasama yan sa growing up phase ng kids natin.
mysterious! does she watch pinoy telenovelas to be so melodramatic like that? with matching throwing of toys pa..
hmmmn... what happened kaya 'no?
Madrama ang MC mo ha. She might do well in the drama club ;) in school. I think it's also good to try to give a poker face during outbursts(even if you are reeling inside) like this so that they don't get much of a reaction that they usually expect.
maybe she got it from a book, there is that particular children's book with that title or theme... could have been the trigger..
analyse, telenovelas, baka mas malala pa when they do watch those things!
bem, i think just a burst of temper
tina, i am seriously thinking about drama school but i might join her so i would know what to expect and have my poker face ready
toni, maybe but we dont have such a book in our house, hmm. still a mystery
