I wondered. I think a lot of parents don't understand that some kids go sort of hysterical over little things. And it's not because we don't try to stabilize things. They just run the gamut of emotions-- definitely not "even-keeled" kids! Just hang in there and get through the best you can. And if it's any consolation at all, all three of my girls are wonderful young women now. They got through that stage ok-- and I survived to tell the tale! OK, the one still gets emotional easily, but that's just part of a person's personality... and she doesn't "lose" it anymore. So there's hope.
I hope the ice skating thing goes well. That's a nice way to spend time with her friends. And yes, it's a rough time for the whole family. Your son may be feeling pretty resentful. Maybe some other parents out there who've gone through similar situations will have some suggestions. Good luck!
