[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 190748, member: 3184"] If she is 6, she may have problems figuring out her emotions. Maybe try helping her by giving her 2 options at a time, like does it make you happy or sad? My difficult child does that quite a bit, especially to psychiatrist who asks hard questions. psychiatrist tells him he won't accept that answer from him, that he is smart enough to figure it out. My difficult child is 10, so big age difference. What about getting her an emotion scale (for lack of a better term) that shows faces so she could pick the one she feels like? I also know my difficult child does not do well with the why question, it is too open and general. He tends to do better if I ask the same thing in a more specific way. [/QUOTE]
