Change in behaviour
It took me some time to gather my thoughts and compose this post. Recently, I noticed a change in Sher's behaviour. It was after her episode of stomach flu. She's much more clingy to me nowadays, it seem she's rather insecure. She doesn't talk to strangers like she used to. (She could chat to any kid sitting next to her when we take the public transport) And displayed meekness/shyness when she meet someone. She also started crying on school-going mornings. I chatted up with her over the weekend, hoping to find an answer to these changes.
It appears that there's a friend that doesn't want to play with her or rather 'friend' her. Then, I told her in reality, she has to accept the fact that people have choices. And she can play with her other friends. This little girl of mine has an innocent perspective of life. But, I can only teach her to be stronger and she will have to face it up on her own. I can't always protect her as rejection is part and parcel of life we have to accept all the time.
