[QUOTE="Malika, post: 537761, member: 11227"] My son has also said this a few times (maybe two, three or four), beginning when he was just four... I was amazed that he came out with such a statement, never having heard anyone say this as far as I am aware. My own feeling is that he says it purely for the shock and (unconscious) manipulation value, wanting me to feel bad and frightened because I have stopped him having something he wants or treated him unfairly in his eyes. At the same time, the fact that he is so prone to impulsive gestures means that if he continued to say it (hasn't said it for a long time now), I would be genuinely worried and seek to speak to someone about it.
